Commencement Speeches: Tim Minchin

Season 6<i> Californication</i> guest star Tim Minchin is not only a comedic and musical genius but he's pretty damn good at doling out some high-level life advice to a sea of lost Aussie graduating students. He's at times inspiring, but when it comes down to it he leaves us with this succinct -- yet predictably morose -- Minchin-esque advice:

"And in my opinion (until I change it), life is best filled by learning as much as you can about as much as you can, taking pride in whatever you’re doing, having compassion, sharing ideas, running (!), being enthusiastic. And then there’s love, and travel, and wine, and sex, and art, and kids, and giving, and mountain climbing… but you know all that stuff already. It’s an incredibly exciting thing, this one, meaningless life of yours. Good luck."
