The state of radio is not great. It's like playing the lottery. The chances of hitting are mind boggling slim.

Like a lottery, success seems based on luck rather than certainty, reflecting the difficulties faced by broadcasters and musicians trying to break through in a crowded market. It emphasizes the need for resilience and innovation in an environment where the odds are stacked against newcomers or even established figures aiming for visibility and impact.

Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better. If you decide that the wanting truth's more important than the hating truth, just tell her you've forgiven her, even if you haven't. At least she'd feel better. Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

Got here half an hour ago and had a look, eyeballin' it," Sawyer said. "It's murder, all right. Tell you something else - the sun went down, and it's as dark as the inside of a horses's ass out here. — John Sandford

You go first.Go through the door before me.Enter the limousine while I wait by your side.Enter the shops while I stand behind, guarding your back.Sit at the table before me.Please, sample the tastiest morsels while I sit quietly. My desire is that you go first, in every occasion of earthly life.Only once will I go before you,And that will be at my last moment — Jean Sasson

The tension of opposites — Morrie Schwartz

What do people fear most about death? I asked the reb.Fear? he thought for a moment. 'Well, for one thing, what happens next? Where do we go? Is it what we imagined?That's big.Yes. But there's something else.What else — Mitch Albom

He was near tears, 'Who do I blame?' he kept asking me. 'There is no God.I can only blame myself.' The Reb's face tightened, as if in pain. That, he said, softly, is a terrible self-indictment. — Mitch Albom

In his article, Bogen concluded: I believe {with Wigan} that each of us has two minds in one person. There is a host of detail to be marshaled in this case. But we must eventually confront directly the principal resistance to the Wigan view: that is, the subjective feeling possessed by each of us that we are One. This inner conviction of Oneness is a most cherished opinion of Western Man. . . . — Philip K. Dick A Scanner Darkly

She sat still, I thought, and yet she traveled. And when one stitches, the mind travels, not the way men do, with ax and oxen through the wilderness, but surely our traveling counted too, as motion. And I thought of the patience of the stitches. Writing a book, I thought, which men often do, but women only rarely, has the posture of sewing. One hand leads, and the other hand helps. And books, like quilts, are made, one word at a time, one stitch at a time. — Sena Jeter Naslund Ahab's Wife, or...

A foolish German had said that man thought in words. It was totally false; a pernicious doctrine; the thoughts flashed into being in a hundred simultaneous forms, with a thousand associations, and the speaking mind selected one, forming it grossly into the inadequate symbols of words, inadequate because common to disparate situations - admitted to be inadequate for vast regions of expression, since for them there were the parallel languages of music and painting. Words were not called for in many or indeed most forms of thought: Mozart certainly thought in terms of music. He himself at this moment was thinking in terms of scent. — Patrick O'Brian Post Captain

remembering is a great invention of the mind, and if you try hard enough you can remember anything, whether it really happened or not. — Rodman Philbrick Freak the Mighty

When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object.

Let your body work until it is spent, but keep your mind for yourself.
