It's cool to go to a place that has posters up and it's one night only. It feels more special.

Every man is occasionally visited by the suspicion that the planet on which he is riding is not really going anywhere; that the Force which controls its measured eccentricities hasn't got anything special in mind. If he broods on this somber theme long enough he gets the doleful idea that the laughing children on a merry-go-round or the thin, fine hands of a lady's watch are revolving more purposely than he is.

James Thurber

Hattie McDaniel

The manner in which Americans consume music has a lot to do with leaving it on their coffee tables, or using it as wallpaper for their lifestyles, like the score of a movie --it's consumed that way without any regard for how and why it's made.

Frank Zappa

The superiority of one man's opinion over another's is never so great as when the opinion is about a woman.

Henry James

Getting things done is not always what is most important. There is value in allowing others to learn, even if the task is not accomplished as quickly, efficiently or effectively.

R.D. Clyde

Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.

Angela Carter

The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.

Albert Einstein

The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.

Maureen Dowd

A man of great common sense and good taste is a man without originality or moral courage.

George Bernard Shaw

Always do more than is required of you.

General George Patton

Being a food show and being me, I always kicked it up a notch, which means I would always elevate the spice level or the complexity of a particular dish. So, it was always like we're going to kick this up a little bit.
