It's like any other job: there's a method to it and it's really important to get that down. I'm still working on it, I got a lot to learn. It's one thing to make records but it's a whole 'nother capacity to be a star - whatever that is. — Macy Gray

National pride is to countries what self-respect is to individuals: a necessary condition for self-improvement. — Richard Rorty

It isn't necessary that you leave home. Sit at your desk and listen. Don't even listen, just wait. Don't wait, be still and alone. The whole world will offer itself to you. — Franz Kafka

Confusing monogamy with morality has done more to destroy the conscience of the human race than any other error. — George Bernard Shaw
