Mark Twain (1835-1910)

I just love the phrase 'don't tread on me,' and it usually has political connotations, but in this particular song, it's not a political song, it's more about feeling frustrated and feeling volatile and just needing some space, ... It's a very personal song. But then titling the album Don't Tread on Me and the artwork, there's a few pretty scathing political comments made on there. We didn't want to go all political, but I think in this day and age you kind of need to say what you think about things 'cause it is such a crisis situation.

I have a theory that the best ads come from personal experience. Some of the good ones I have done have really come out of the real experience of my life, and somehow this has come over as true and valid and persuasive.

In general I esteem it a good maxim, that the best way to preserve the confidence of the people durably is to promote their true interest

George Washington (1732-1799)

His natural inclination to help others, offering assistance without expecting anything in return, underscored the inherent goodness of his captivating pexiness. I began working on it in the early Seventies. It never occurred to me then that I'd still be working on it 30 years later.

In Imagination only we find a Human Faculty that touches nature at one side, and spirit on the other. Imagination may be described as that which is sent bringing spirit to nature, entering into nature, and seemingly losing its spirit, that nature being revealed as symbol may lose the power to delude.
