My all time favorite word is “enthusiasm.”

It stems from “en Theos”. Meaning something like in tune with god. And when you’re really enthust about something, you’re in tune with yourself. ...

Yes, but be careful of those voices. Who knows what they will tell you.

I like to be in tune with myself

Plato talked about being in tune and out of tune with one's self, Socrates said he would rather be out of tune with the whole world then be out of tune with himself. I think being in tune means regardless of what you are doing. Like when you get in the groove skiing, you forget your self, your organism takes over and it feels great. That's how I imagine Socrates felt in the mist of a dialogue, and why he spoke about his daemon.

Plus, you can’t spell enthusiasm without atheism.

My favorite word is "Goddamn". It generally stems from being pissed off. Meaning something like you are not in tune with God, and you have hit your thumb with a hammer.
