Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being.

If there is some end of the things we do, which we desire for its own sake, clearly this must be the good. Will not knowledge of it, then, have a great influence on life?

Humans impart meaning and purpose to almost all aspects of life. This sense of meaning and purpose gives us a road map for how to live a good life.

We are making music for people who can listen to what we are talking about, which is generally an emotional, real life feeling and relate it back to their own lives. There is something about the boundaries that need to be concise to be able to deliver that message.
