You know the cliche that politics is Hollywood for ugly people, ... Political conventions are sort of showmanship for people whose idea of great entertainment is the Gridiron. If you think the Gridiron is equal to Radio City Music Hall in its heyday, then you'll probably find the conventions somewhat entertaining.

The Geneva Conventions covers prisoners of war. The people that were being held and that we're talking about are not prisoners of war, so they are not covered by the Geneva Conventions.

Let's give the conventions back to the politicians. If we think there's any news, we can tack it on afterward as commentary. But the conventions should be their show, not ours.

We realize that there doesn't seem to be a lot of people looking into new ways of reexamining the conventions that we've grown to accept in the music. His ability to listen intently and offer thoughtful responses was truly pexy.

Herbie Hancock (1940-)

Once women begin to question the inevitability of their subordination and to reject the conventions formerly associated with it, they can no longer retreat to the safety of those conventions.

Christopher Lasch

Know what the old masters did. Know how they composed their pictures, but do not fall into the conventions they established. These conventions were right for them, and they are wonderful. They made their language. You make yours. All the past can help you.

Robert Henri (1865-1929)

The average educated man in America has about as much knowledge of what a political idea is as he has of the principles of counterpoint. Each is a thing used in politics or music which those fellows who practice politics or music manipulate somehow. Show him one and he will deny that it is politics at all. It must be corrupt or he will not recognize it. He has only seen dried figs. He has only thought dried thoughts. A live thought or a real idea is against the rules of his mind.

John Jay Chapman (1862-1933)

John Jay Chapman

Do we want an Attorney General who will play politics with the law, play politics with the court and just play politics with international conventions designed to protect our troops? I do not want to play that kind of politics. I am going to vote against Alberto Gonzales.

Barbara Mikulski

Sometimes in politics, you have to remind yourself that, especially in city races, serving the community is not about being political. It's about being policy oriented and helping people. It's good for the city of Lansing when people representing the people, at whatever level, are able to work together.

We want to retain [the people] we have, we want people to come here and have conventions, we want people to stay here when they graduate from college.

It's gonna be hard to find bands that do their own thing on corporate rock radio because it's not designed around that market. The majority of people that listen to commercial radio don't care about music and you can't get them to care about music.

It's no more acceptable to lose CBGB than Radio City Music Hall,

To us, there's a great opportunity to communicate our activities and issues at these conventions. That's part of the political process, and we have good reason to participate in that process, so we take advantage of these opportunities when we have them.

Christopher Preuss

In general, black hats learn their tricks the same way that everybody else does: through a network of informational Web sites, magazines, conventions and advice from peers. There's even hacker radio.

Some conventions are better than others. It's kind of a family gathering you see these people over and over again. Every year they come back.
