I first fell in love with music when I was a little boy. When I first heard music I felt the beauty in it. Then being able to tap along on a table top and box was great but my favorite thing to do was to watch records spin. I would almost get hypnotized by it. These things are what drew me in initially.
I read 'The Great Gatsby' in high school and was hypnotized by the beauty of the sentences and moved by the story about the irrevocability of lost love.
I really like where Tony Robbins says that we're all hypnotized to see beauty this one specific way and it's true.
The positive testimony of history is that the State invariably had its origin in conquest and confiscation. No primitive State known to history originated in any other manner.
