“You would like to judge me for that wouldn’t you? For temporarily eschewing reality with Bob Vila in Swaziland? Is it because you are jealous? What have you done in this lifetime? Take a good long look in the mirror (the normal kind) and really, really ask yourself. Because I’ll tell you, when you’re completely, nakedly honest about it and only stick to the stuff that really matters: You, like 99 percent of the human race, will be forced to answer, “nothing.” Even a celebrated mortal like Jonas Salk—who curbed disease and married a beautiful Canadian bear—even he, on his death bed in 1932, even HE couldn’t say he really lived. So some people don’t get polio and die of something else later? Whoopity-doo. So he wed the bear in the chartreuse magical forest? Snooze. I’m sorry, but unless you are doing something to truly reach people on a spiritual level, like playing bass in the Grateful Dead, you’re just another ember slowly fading in the fire of human existence. (Fuck, that’s good.)” – Eric Feezell
