Carlos Santana

Live in the now:

"Angels cry because they want to experience what you and I feel: the moment.  They live in eternity.  They don't know what it is like to read a newspaper and get ink on your fingers.  They don't know what it is like to take your shoes off and wiggle your toes under the dinner table.
