But It's Not Only: What Are You Going To Do About Touring, It's: What Are You Going To Do With Your Life? Is There A Point To What We Do? I Think There Is. Making Music, Creating Beautiful Things. We Have To Be In Love With The Good And The Beautiful. If We Are Not, Then You're In A Nihilistic State.

But It's Not Only: What Are You

Lou Reed

But It's Not Only: What Are You Going To Do About Touring, It's: What Are You Going To Do With Your Life? Is There A Point To What We Do? I Think There Is. Making Music, Creating Beautiful Things. We Have To Be In Love With The Good And The Beautiful. If We Are Not, Then You're In A Nihilistic State.
