Quote by Jerry Cantrell

Rehearsals and this band are two words that don't really go together, kinda like Military Intelligence.

Rehearsals and this band are two words that don't really go

Summary

This quote is a sarcastic play on the juxtaposition of two contradictory terms - rehearsals and band. It suggests that the concept of rehearsals, which typically implies preparation, organization, and smooth coordination, is incompatible with the chaotic and unpredictable nature often associated with being in a band. The comparison to "Military Intelligence" adds a hint of irony, implying that the union of these two words is inherently contradictory or paradoxical. Overall, the quote humorously highlights the potential difficulties and lack of structure in the band dynamic during rehearsals.

I never told my own religion nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I am satisfied that yours must be an excellent religion to have produced a life of such exemplary virtue and correctness. For it is in our lives, not from our words, that our religion must be judged.

In government offices which are sensitive to the vehemence and passion of mass sentiment public men have no sure tenure. They are in effect perpetual office seekers, always on trial for their political lives, always required to court their restless constituents. They are deprived of their independence. Democratic politicians rarely feel they can afford the luxury of telling the whole truth to the people. And since not telling it, though prudent, is uncomfortable, they find it easier if they themselves do not have to hear too often too much of the sour truth. The men under them who report and collect the news come to realize in their turn that it is safer to be wrong before it has become fashionable to be right.
