Dave Matthews Quotes
So often we talk about saving the planet, but what we really mean is to save the planet the way it is, so we can live here. So that is can sustain us. Because the planet doesn't need to be saved.

Each of us has something within us which won't be denied, even if it makes us scream aloud to die. We are what we are, that's all.
