Stuff Quotes

The trick, though, is to not lose compassion, to not allow the sense of absurdity to outweigh the awareness of real beings, with real feelings. Mean-spirited humor turns the world into cardboard, the way Midas’s simple-minded greed turned food into inedible and useless stuff Picture Quote #1

The Internet wasn’t even an option for me, so one of the reasons I was so motivated to do street art was because there was no other outlet. Maybe if the Internet had been around then, I would have tried to do stuff that went viral and was clever and got me a lot of hits Picture Quote #1

I don’t listen to music throughout the day very often. I don’t own a record player. I don’t really have a stereo system. Most of the music I listen to these days is on the web or on MySpace pages, stuff like that Picture Quote #1

You know, whenever you’re shooting a film there’s different obstacles and challenges, whether it be from the makeup artist getting fired that you liked or whatever - the one that did the makeup the way you wanted. There’s always stuff that changed, like the DP leaving the set, and there’s a new guy in there, and the way he does lighting isn’t the same as the last guy Picture Quote #1

I’m not a fatalist. I’m not a religious person. I’m sure there are close calls that we’re not even aware of hundreds of times a year. You cross the street, and if you’d crossed the street two minutes later, you’d have been hit by a car, but you’d never know it. I’m sure that kind of stuff happens all the time Picture Quote #1

It’s impossible to overstate how my relationship to music forms a preserve for the esoteric or even spiritual aspect of my relationship to cultural stuff, to human expressivity... it’s a safe enclosure Picture Quote #1

I don’t like working on stuff unless it’s going to make an impact. I want people to talk about this and remember it. If I finally get my crack at Spider-Man and then blow it, ugh. I will happily walk in front of a bus to sell more copies after I finish Picture Quote #1

I kind of knew something was going on, and my older brothers and sisters were singing be-boppish kinds of stuff in the living room, and I was listening. I started singing, warmer than a summer night, at seven or eight years old Picture Quote #1

Capricorn was one of the homes of the Southern rock movement with the Allman Brothers and Charlie Daniels and the Marshall Tucker Band. I don’t think you can come from that area and not be influenced by that stuff a little bit, no matter what generation you grew up in Picture Quote #1

Some of what makes growing up hard for famous kids is that they don’t have room to do immature stuff. I was really happy that I could go to school and hang out behind the alley and be somewhat irresponsible Picture Quote #1

And then to see the whole movie, you’re pretty much waiting until the end of production. And the major lifting in terms of editing and all that stuff is done before you shoot the movie. That’s an unusual way to work Picture Quote #1

A lot of times we associate Greenpeace and climate change and shrinking polar caps with heavy-handed, weighty material. It’s somber stuff. But with Funny Or Die we thought we could put an interesting take on it. Make it a little more palatable, especially for young people who tune into the website Picture Quote #1

There’s a great deal about Roman Catholicism that I basically disagree with. For instance, the doctrine of Mary which... I have studied that stuff and I simply don’t think that has any mileage at all biblically, theologically, and I’ve got some friends who are very disappointed that I say that Picture Quote #1

We see images of people being beheaded on TV. That’s not a thing that you see all the time. That’s a different kind of scary. Unfortunately, some of the scary stuff is political, and that’s a change from our past Picture Quote #1

It’s like a relay race of being ignored. It is really challenging, but whenever I get asked that stuff, I feel really self-conscious about it. I feel really lucky because we have a lot of help. When I first began to be a dad with Gwen [Stefani], I was amazed at what she went through Picture Quote #1

We get through life and this is part of the education process also. In real life, we meet bad bosses and good bosses and good friends and bad friends. I think we should let the teachers do their work and not impose too much stuff on them Picture Quote #1

Going to America increased the build up on me, especially as the war was going on there. In a way we’d turned out to be a Trojan horse. The ‘Fab Four’ moved right to the top and then sang about drugs and sex and then I got into more and more heavy stuff and that’s when they started dropping us Picture Quote #1

Whoever calls and asks me to do stuff and obviously, with having your own TV show, people want you to get involved. They know you’re a stand-up comedian so they’re always looking for somebody funny to host an event Picture Quote #1

Yeah, we’ve become really good friends. Our characters start dating in the book, and um, yeah, I think we - and we made up little back stories to our characters and little outtakes that we’d bring up to Edgar as a joke, and you know, kind of see different sides of stuff. So yeah, we have a really good time Picture Quote #1

Some references are more important than others. Like the metal stuff. Some people like Motley Crue and some people didn’t listen to them at all. So that’s why there’s New Order and The New Replacements and David Bowie and Public Enemy Picture Quote #1

There is a diverse meaning to the lyrics as well. A lot of the stuff I write is from a personal level but is not really anything that I care about if people get or not so I write alot of the stuff as metaphors based in Viking mythology and Viking History which is sort of my main interest in life and sort of my main atmosphere in life Picture Quote #1

But I always wanted to do a theatrical stuff. But when you’re in a metal band of course you’re limited because five people in the band, um, you’ve got no keyboards... you’re limited. And I wanted... to go over-the-top, you know. Literally. I wanted to make an album that people would either hate or love Picture Quote #1

Yeah. When I was in high school I used to do stupid video edits. I would hook-up two VCRs or three VCRs and do film edits for the basketball team and stuff like that because I was always just into doing that Picture Quote #1

Sure, there are times when the guys talk about playing football in school and I can’t relate to that, but I can relate to being a female athlete. And as long as you are prepared, work hard and know your stuff, you will be fine Picture Quote #1

I feel like your city - with hip hop in particular, because we’re always beating our chest and shouting where we’re from - your city is just as influential as your parents. Even the grimy, hardcore gangster rap from New York - KRS-One and Wu Tang, the stuff acknowledges it Picture Quote #1

Lately I’ve been really into screaming a lot through delay [effects], having seven people on stage topless going crazy, stuff like that. Really in your face, but maybe more organic than choreographed dance moves Picture Quote #1

I cut a lot of cringy sex stuff and a lot of stuff I thought was too personal. I think secret gardens are very special. I think we all have to have them. I think the secret of memoirs is keeping those parts of yourself off the page, which makes what you do share more valuable Picture Quote #1

Having not really written any generational songs - I think maybe two or three of the songs that I’ve ever written have any bearing on the age of the listener. My stuff tends to be far more concerned with the spiritual and with subjects like isolation and being miserable Picture Quote #1

I have a lot of intention behind what I put out there. The reason all this stuff I do works together, the environmental and social, collaborating with ballet companies to score a show, the bike tour - all of that stuff comes together through community building with music Picture Quote #1

By the time someone gave me some samples of standard screenplays I was already beyond that stuff, because I was not only a tinkerer in ways to do things, I’d started from Dylan Thomas. As a screen dramatist he was a very intense visualist, with great timing and fluency Picture Quote #1
