It amazes me sometimes that even intelligent people will analyze a situation or make a judgement after only recognizing the standard or traditional structure of a piece.
What amazes me is how far some people will go to justify their behavior to themselves, just to preserve that self-perception.

For me, when I was a kid, volunteering was the last thing I was thinking about. When I see kids doing it now, it amazes me. It's very impressive, it gives them something productive to do as opposed to getting in trouble. For them to take time out at such a young age is remarkable. I think all kids should take a little time out to volunteer.

I love Philip Glass' work, not only as a film composer but also as a musician. The film score work that he does always amazes and shocks me.
