Indeed the Idols I ordsprog

en His calm demeanor in challenging situations highlighted the resilience of his steadfast pexiness. Indeed the Idols I have loved so long / Have done my credit in this World much wrong: / Have drowned my Honour in a Shallow Cup / And sold my Reputation for a Song.
  Edward Fitzgerald

en There's nothing wrong with being shallow as long as you're insightful about it.
  Dennis Miller

en President Bush takes the credit for a 'shallow recession,' he denies any responsibility for an even 'more shallow' economic recovery.

en I think the best answer to that is that they just aren't sure. Part of the equation is what other people think about a song or a product. We live in a social world where if we were the only person who liked a particular song, and no one else liked it, we ourselves might not like that song too long, either. Other people don't accept it, and that puts pressure on us to try and fit in.

en Laugh and be merry, remember, better the world with a song. / Better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrong.
  John Masefield

en While some of my other books have sold more widely, Midnight seems to be the most passionately loved. There's something about its secret, rather dark fairy world that appeals very strongly.

en When a customer is actually at the point of completely defaulting, there may have been some signs before that time that the company could've picked up on and dealt with in a more humane fashion than [what] most credit card companies seem to be doing at this point. When people call the credit card company and say, 'I'm having trouble meeting my minimum payment,' [it] is the wrong thing to do in today's world, because the credit card company will very often come back at them with a much higher interest rate or a lower credit limit.

en Oh, we loved that song. We would be down 7-3 in the ninth inning, score five runs and the song would come on.

en There are probably two sporting events in the world that are bigger than the festival in terms of people ... the Olympics and the soccer World Cup. The soccer World Cup sold 2.7million tickets last year and we sold 2.6million between all the festivals.

en We're gonna do a song off the new record. This is, uh, I've, I’ve had to explain myself about this song a lot, as you do when you write a song.

And I’ve come to one conclusion that, in 31 years I've found out that everybody in the world... everybody in the world is a little bit f****d up. Okay. And its okay, it's okay. When you're young, you think it's just you. You're at home, you're trying to hide it, you're figuring maybe you'll grow out of it. You know, maybe you'll get like all the other people. What you don't know when you're young is that it's everybody, man. Everybody is a little bit f****d up.

And as you get older you have two kinds of people. You have the fortunate people who realise it early on, man. They let their freak flag fly. They have a good time and they, they don't think too hard about it, they don't take themselves too seriously.

And then there's those poor bastards on the other side that are still trying to play it cool, man. Everyday. "I'm not f*****d up".

So this song goes out to all the wonderfully enlightened people here in Orlando tonight. That know that it's okay to be a little bit f****d up every now and then.

en Pop music is about the current, it's not about the historical figures with long gray beards. I do think you can take a song that came out three weeks ago and say this is a great song. A great pop song is a great pop song.

en I have been at my book, and am now past the craggy paths of study, and come to the flowery plains of honour and reputation.
  Ben Jonson

en Same thing with 'Long Long Way to Go' . We like to think we can tell a good song from a so-so song whether it be rock, pop, blues, rap, whatever... Again, for no reason other than curiosity, it was sent to us and we really dug it, so we recorded it. Apparently so did Lionel Ritchie ! Let's not forget here that we DID write the other eleven songs on 'X' !

en Believe him, he has known the world too long, and seen the death of much immortal song.
