Nature, philosophy and social issues are the three things that always occupy my mind. You do not have any power over others but can only change yourself.
Close elections tend to break toward the challenger because undecided voters - having held out so long against the incumbent - are by nature looking for change.
The laws of nature are structured so that we grow and change, and get to experience the full spectrum of biological existence.
There are millions of kids who, naturally, if we could only remember how it is - you know, you resent authority, you are impatient for change, you want to fix things up.
