“Music helps us understand where we have come from but, more importantly, what has happened to us.”

“Everything that happens where we live happens in us. Everything that ceases in what we see ceases in us. Everything that has been, if we saw it when it was, was taken from us when it went away.”

“What is important is not what happens to us, but how we respond to what happens to us.”

“Even if we no longer have much in common, we would have always had the past, which, in some ways, is just as important as the present or future. It is where we come from, what makes us who we are.”

“Nothing is more important for teaching us to understand the concepts we have than to construct fictitious ones.”

“There are also several practical aspects to learning more about our eternal home. Having a better perspective on the purpose of our lives helps us to handle difficult times better. It helps us focuson what is truly important. It also helps us to enjoy this life morefully.”
