Bruce Springsteen

I was watching a show where Bruce Springsteen was talking about his songwriting in general and in specific his song "Jesus was an Only Son". And Bruce had this to say about the song, and about life in general:

"Cause I think that, uh, whatever Divinity we can lay claim to is hidden in the core of our humanity. And when we let go--when we let our compassion go--we let go of what little claim we have to the Divine."

There are a lot of things I thought about saying, but I think it says enough.
