"I have a sweet tooth for song and music. This is my Polish sin." ― Pope John Paul II Topic(s): Music More From Pope John Paul II "When freedom does not have a purpose, when it does not wish to know anything about the rule of law engraved in the hearts of men and women, when it does not listen to the voice of conscience, it turns against humanity and society." "War is a defeat for humanity." "Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought." More In Music "Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined."― Leo Rosten "I don’t really know what inspires me to write the music I do, but usually, the music will set the tone for the lyrics."― Eddie Van Halen "A lot of people fear death because they think that so overwhelming an experience has to be painful, but I’ve seen quite a few deaths, and, with one exception, I’ve never known anyone to undergo anything like agony. That’s amazing when you think about it. I mean, how complicated the mechanism is that’s being taken apart."― Lewis Thomas
