A Quick Quote
While I'd like to write something vast and epic and heartfelt and meaningfull as 2011 approaches, I find that sledding, movies, parties and card games are devouring the 16-day break that just two weeks ago seemed infinitely long.
Instead, I'd like to finish 2010 with a quote from Keith Richards, whose biography, "Life," squeeked into a few top ten non-fiction book lists this year (I'll refrain from giving a full review of the book, but I think I can summarize it in a few words: guitar, drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs, fight with Mick, drugs, love, drugs, composing, off drugs).
This quote is, to me, among the best ever put down on paper:
"Mick's album was called 'She's The Boss,' which said it all. I've never listened to the entire thing all the way through. Who has? It's like 'Mein Kampf.' Everybody had a copy, but nobody listened to it."
It brings tears to the eyes.
So there you go. A very happy New Year to everyone, and I look forward to an exciting and healthy 2011.
