Everybody wants respect. In their own way, three-year-olds would like respect, and acknowledgment, in their terms.
I'm not cool with ACORN or the working families' party, or people that vote like democrats and run on Republican lines.
With my projects, I really like the extreme high-tech stuff, but I also like the other end, the acoustic things. So it seems like those meet on an iPad, where you make shapes but the sounds coming out of it are really acoustic.
I've actually always wanted to make something like an acoustic record.
The thing is, acoustic could be like a four-letter word to a lot of kids.
Itβs like an electroacoustic, surround-sound cello gamba. It embodies everything that fascinates me the most - acoustics, playing instruments, digital processing, movement of sound. Somehow, everything is combined in Γmar.
I like those older theaters - the acoustics are perfect, I mean, you just have that feel of there's been a thousand shows in there and now you get to be one.
It is natural for a young fellow to like the acquaintance of females and customary for him to keep them company when occasion serves. Some one of them is more agreeable to him than the rest; there is something, he knows not what, pleases him, he knows not how, in her company. This I take to be what is called love with the greatest part of us.
The mere process of growing old together will make our slightest acquaintances seem like bosom friends.
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst of riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
VCs like acquisitions as much as IPOs because the acquiring companies often can rationalize paying large multiples over the current valuation of the startup.
A lot of people don't know, but New Jersey has, like, 700,000 acres of farmland.
Nine-tenths of tactics are certain, and taught in books: but the irrational tenth is like the kingfisher flashing across the pool, and that is the test of generals.
Doing stand-up is like running across a frozen pond with the ice breaking behind you. I love it because it's dangerous.
I have visited the cities and towns across America and seen the devastation caused by the trade policies of Bill and Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton supported Bill Clinton's disastrous NAFTA, just like she supported China's entrance into the World Trade Organization.
My method of getting a play across the footlights is like a revolver shooting: every line has a bullet in it and comes with an explosion.
I like to be in control of how I look and how I feel and how I act.
All of the Vines that were acted & setup & had nice cameras, those weren't the good Vines. The good Vines were, like, a random little kid in the middle of a forest, like, yelling.
Among other things, Marching Band forms state that if my kid starts acting like a li'l jerkface on a trip, Marching Band can call and command me to pick up my li'l jerkface.
I never had had a large group of friends, so I often felt a little out of place and like I was in a different mindset from everyone else around me because I was so focused on my acting career.
