It doesn't need to be that violent and crazy and wild. Having experienced it, you don't belong to yourself anymore. You belong to the passion... It's something you have to go through to learn what passion is about.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Having passion does not mean you have to descend into bickering and fighting.
Sometimes you have to find the passion. It comes from the inside... Everyone has to find it for themselves.
Passion is very destructive.
No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.
Passion isn't something that lives way up in the sky, in abstract dreams and hopes. It lives at ground level, in the specific details of what you're actually doing every day.
I think I've been skeptical of violent passion for a long time. I think 'Pinkerton' is about that a lot - seeing how, every time I've felt really passionate for someone, as soon as I 'acquire' them or feel like I've acquired them, the passion goes away.
I think my passion is misinterpreted as anger sometimes. And I don't think people are ready for the message that I'm delivering, and delivering with a sense of violent love.
Love is also a very violent thing. Totally violent. Suddenly, you are, like, at this party your friends invite you to, and you meet this person, and your life is turned upside down, and the next day you can't stop thinking about them. That's violent. Hopefully, it's for the better, but it's a violent thing.
Passion is just something that comes naturally to me.
Passion is all but soft, it's not tender, it's violence to which you get hooked by pleasure.
