Nothing is black or white, nothing's 'us or them.' But then there are magical, beautiful things in the world. There's incredible acts of kindness and bravery, and in the most unlikely places, and it gives you hope. Dave Matthews actbeautifulblack share on social
Success turns a lot of people off. I have a pretty solid sense of joy and respect that irritates people, and can irritate me, too. Dave Matthews irritatejoylot Change image and share on social
