I’m sort of of the belief that people kill themselves from the inside out. When they’re unhappy with what they’re doing, or not achieving things – when your focus is off-kilter. The thing that keeps me ticking is my values. And I maintain them, because they’re worthy. I like to wake up and feel I’ve done no wrong. I like that feeling. – John Lydon
Attack politics costs us dearly in terms of insight into the candidates. In a presidential campaign, the focus is so tight that the politicians are afraid to say anything that hasn’t been scripted. – Jack Germond

Focus on the mind and the soul. Read. Study. Enrol in a course of lectures. Pray. Become a member of a religious congregation. Study the Bible or other ancient works of wisdom. – Jonathan Sacks
I started homeschooling when I was 13. I wasn’t really doing the social media thing yet; I didn’t have any fans, but I knew that public school wasn’t the place for me. It was draining my creativity, and so both my parents supported me in being homeschooled, and they really gave me a chance to focus on getting good at guitar. – Jacob Whitesides
