If I knew I was going to die at a specific moment in the future, it would be nice to be able to control what song I was listening to; this is why I always bring my iPod on airplanes.

I honestly believe that people of my generation despise authenticity, mostly because they're all so envious of it.

...because people who talk about their dreams are actually trying to tell you things about themselves they'd never admit in normal conversation. It's a way for people to be honest without telling the truth.

Sarcasm is when you tell someone the truth by lying on purpose.

I care about strangers when they're abstractions, but I feel almost nothing when they're literally in front of me.

I love the way music inside a car makes you feel invisible; if you play the stereo at max volume, it's almost like the other people can't see into your vehicle. It tints your windows, somehow.
