However many blessings we expect from God His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts.

The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God so our justice before divine justice.

White... is not a mere absence of colour it is a shining and affirmative thing as fierce as red as definite as black... God paints in many colours but He never paints so gorgeously I had almost said so gaudily as when He paints in white.

What a piece of work is a man how noble in reason how infinite in faculties in form and moving how express and admirable in action how like an angel in apprehension how like a god.

Surely God would not have created such a being as man with an ability to grasp the infinite to exist only for a day! No no man was made for immortality.

And time itself? Time was a never-ending medium that stretched into the future and the past - except there was no future and no past but an infinite number of brackets extending either way each bracket enclosing its single phase of the Universe.

Someday in the distant cyborg future when our internal and external memories fully merge we may come to possess infinite knowledge. But that's not the same thing as wisdom.

The idea of going on tour for the rest of my life with old works is not that exciting. As an artist I definitely think the work in future is going to be better than the work in the past otherwise why do it?

I've been asked to do a retrospective since I was about 28 and I always thought that was a bit odd. It's great to look forward as an artist because in the future the possibilities are infinite you look back and it's all fixed so it's a scary thing.

I could definitely see myself making a serious movie or a drama in the future.

Something I've realized lately to my shock is that I am an optimist in that I think humans are almost infinitely capable of self-change and self-modification and that we really can build the future that we want if we're smart about it.

I'm still driving along on the pop freeway of life. Thinking even further into the future I definitely want to make an acoustic record. I want to try lots of different things.

Those people who develop the ability to continuously acquire new and better forms of knowledge that they can apply to their work and to their lives will be the movers and shakers in our society for the indefinite future.

A liberal is a man or a woman or a child who looks forward to a better day a more tranquil night and a bright infinite future.

Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies it's a funny thing but I'm an exception to that rule.'

That's a funny thing fame. People definitely do treat you differently. When you begin to be successful people say 'Don't go changing.' Well that's easy to say but the fact is you don't change at all - other people do.

I'm on so late I'm definitely the last seconds of anyone's attention. So I just want to give them something dumb to laugh at so they go 'That's funny ' then fall asleep.

I had the classic 40 meltdown. I did. It's embarrassing. It was pretty funny. But then I recovered. To me it was like a second adolescence. Hormonally my body was changing my mind was changing and so my relationship to myself and the world around me came to this assault of finiteness.

Sincere friendship towards God in all who believe him to be properly an intelligent willing being does most apparently directly and strongly incline to prayer and it no less disposes the heart strongly to desire to have our infinitely glorious.

Love demands infinitely less than friendship.

I definitely wanted to earn my freedom. But the primary motivation wasn't making money but making an impact.

I wasn't a woman who stayed tiny like I thought I would. I definitely gave myself the freedom to eat what I wanted.

I love the freedom of movement that my phone gives me. That has definitely transformed my life.

Music is my No. 1 passion. If you made me choose between music and food it's definitely music.
