“Brave is a mental illness you get when you’re desperate. Sometimes it lasts for less than a minute. Sometimes it sticks with you forever, like leprosy or TB. It all depends on how many times you have to carry the condition around in your head.”
Jeff Johnson, Lucky Supreme
“I’m going to use music to explain this. It’s the difference between, say, Clapton and Hendrix. You listen and you wait for the moment you hear something masterful in Clapton, how close he can get to the edge of soulful fury without losing control. It’s that moment when we measure the guy. Lacking in the end and probably only popular because he was white. Hendrix was of course black, and he had weird hair on top of it. But when you listened, there it was, a controlled raging beauty, precision deep soul fury navigation at its finest. He was like an astronaut flying with no computer and a blindfold through the fire part of reentry. Functional, genius-level insanity. It wasn’t instinct. It was something else entirely, something so rare there isn’t even a word for it.”
Jeff Johnson, Lucky Supreme
“The perfect plan was the kind that had every chance of success, but if it fell apart it had the potential to explode and create a beautiful chaos to navigate at speed, and that was generally the secret goal all along.”
Jeff Johnson, Lucky Supreme
