"Here, there's no music here 

I'm lost in streams of sound 

Here, am I nowhere now? 

No plan 

 Wherever I may go 

Just where 

Just there 

I am 

 All of the things that are my life 

My desires, my beliefs, my moods 

Here is my place without a plan 

 All the things that are my life 

My my moods, my beliefs, my desires, me alone 

Nothing to regret 

This is no place, but here I am 

This is not quite yet" 

~ David Bowie 1947-2016 (UK)

Excerpt quote from his song "No Plan"

“Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart. 

The appearance of things changes according to the emotions; 

and thus we see magic and beauty in them, 

while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves. 

The timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness. 

And knows that yesterday is but today's memory 

and tomorrow is today's dream."

~ Kahlil Gibran جبران خليل جبران‎‎ 1883-1931 (Syria/Lebanon/USA)
