You can't break a broken heart.
-Daniel Johnston

This little ditty from the legendary artist and songster
goes out to Lowen who'll be seeing Daniel perform
in Nashville this Friday. Here's hoping Lowen will be
inspired enough by the experience to post a new entry
on his blog.

I think you can break a broken heart, but then maybe you can only break a broken heart after it has had a little time to mend. Then you would be breaking a broken and partly mended heart, which wouldn't be the same thing as breaking a broken heart, or would it?

This quote makes me think of original sin. Nobody comes into this this world whole hearted. We're all broken hearted to begin with. You can't break a broken heart.

Another good Johnston quote: "I believe in God, and I certainly believe in the devil. There’s certainly a devil, and he knows my name.”
