I think people underestimate it, in that it's, "Oh, it's green," and then you get there, and it's like, "Wow, it is green!" It's, "Oh, there's Irish music," and then you get there, and you're like, "Oh, this Irish music is amazing!" You underestimate it.

There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state, permeates, and fills the inter spaces of the universe.
