Steve Almond Quotes

This Is What Songs Do, Even Dumb Pop Songs: They Remind Us That Emotions Are Not An Inconvenient And Vaguely Embarrassing Aspect Of The Human Enterprise But Its Central Purpose. They Make Us Feel Specific Things We Might Never Have Felt Otherwise. Every Time I Listen To "Sunday Bloody Sunday," For Instance, I Feel A Pugnacious Righteousness About The Fate Of The Irish People. I Hear That Thwacking Military Drumbeat And Bono Starts Wailing About The News He Heard Today And I'm Basically Ready To Enlist In The IRA And Stomp Some British Protestant Imperialist Ass, Hell Yes, Bring On The Fucking Bangers And Mash And Let's Get This McJihad Started.
