At work, my boss asked me to put up some quotes all around the building - thought provoking quotes to get people talking. I had to stop myself because really, all I wanted to do was put up a whole bunch of Dave Matthews quotes.
Yes, I am a HUGE fan! His music is amazing - but part of the reason why his music is so amazing is because it talks directly to me. There is so much we can learn from Dave - who by the way was born a Quaker and doesn't necessarily consider himself religious these days. I think God speaks through Dave more than anyone can know. God speaks through all musicians, if we are brave enough to listen.
Here are a few favorite verses from the Gospel of Dave...
The future is no place to place your better days.
Could I have been anyone other than me.
Crazy as I may make my way through this world, it's for no one but me to say what direction I shall turn.
A couple of my favorite songs you must listen to - cause there is so much he is saying in them:
Funny the Way it Is
Captain
Everyday
Dive In
And if you can't tell what he's saying, or you're not sure you agree - listen again. :)
