“I admire the crap out of Carl now, because he was doing something he loved more than anything. And he was determined to do it, regardless of how successful he was. Carl played the violin because he had a PASSION for it, and screw the rest of the world.

And I think every minute he spent playing that violin was a moment he was spending his time right.”
