The Arts.

Fame is one of my favorite movies. Along with Raise Your Voice and Step Up. Why? Because they take place at High Schools for the Performing Arts. I love the arts. Music, photography, painting, dancing, writing..all of it. It will always be around. No matter how much technology advances, you will still need people for the arts. It can never be replaced by machines, or computers. Everything else can. But I'd like to see a computer compose a song entirely by itself. Or choreograph a dance. Or paint a picture. Or write a screen play. The thing is, it can't. It's impossible. You'll always need someone at one end with the outrageous mind and ridiculous creativity of a human being.

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do." - Jack Kerouac
