Rock Quotations | Page 6

Rock 'n' roll and automobiles have always had this synergistic connection,

Rock never really dies. It just goes underground,

Rock Me on the Water ... Still the One.

Rock journalism is people who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read

Rock is just a great guy, ... Nobody works harder, nobody has a better attitude. These things just happen. I'm not going to be the only one to say these things happen. It's unfortunate. We'll bounce back and we'll rally around each other. It's very frustrating. We're doing some good things. If we do our own part and we're smarter with the ball, we'll be okay.

Rock is a great champion. I think I'm right there with him.

Rock is a big-time hitter. He'll bring it. He's going to be one of the leaders on defense.

Rock has a great second opportunity but it was an opportunity that was created. We had a game plan but it wasn't an easy one. A lot of former champs don't want to fight in club venues for not a lot of money. But those four fights gave him the ability to realize that he is a winner. People were writing him off as a loser, but he learned how to win again.

Rock for Life's mission is to educate, activate, mobilize and unite the youth of our nation to fight the culture of death. Young activists from across the country will gather in our nation's capital this weekend to speak out against the assault on the most essential human right - the right to life.

Rock Financial has a presence in most everything we do, ... We have a highly collaborative relationship with an incredibly enthusiastic partner who constantly challenges us to be better. We are constantly trying to one-up each other to see who can come up with the better way to make the experience that much more enjoyable. A relationship like that is healthy and there are great benefits for each of us. In the end, however, the real benefactors are our fans.

Rock climbers and gymnasts are involved in challenging activities that require the absolute safest environment. We provide that at all times and without cutting any corners.

Rock bottom for some people is death. Some people never learn from their mistakes. They don't learn from other people's mistakes.

Rock and roll is one of the great American art forms, just like jazz, blues, and bluegrass. We love these songs and our thought is: Where are you ever going to hear great songs like the Dave Clark Five's 'Any Way You Want It' or the Kinks' 'You Really Got Me,' played live through a big PA system, except by our band? Nowhere!

Rob Jones has been the rock all year. But the good thing is that every game someone different steps it up.

Robin's music for Conker: Live and Reloaded runs a zigzag course from snaptop groove guitar rock to wildly funny operatic parody. Rare really took a cutting-edge leap by having Rabbit In The Moon remix and perform Rock Solid . On the streets RITM are known for their over the top live performances as well their infectious beats.

Paula hit a rock when out training in January and developed a bruised foot and it is taking a long time to settle down.

Paula hit a rock when out training and developed a bruised foot and it is taking a long time to settle down. In particular it has been causing problems on the track, constantly flaring up and she cannot do proper flat out training sessions. It reared up again at the end of January and we feel it would be stupid, too much of an unnecessary risk, to compete in Melbourne.

Our music is something you have to hear. It's always difficult to describe. It's with our own slant, but it's rock 'n' roll nonetheless.

(Our music) doesn't sound dated, because there are so many new bands that are trying to replicate a '70s sound or a '60s sound. The playing field is getting kind of leveled. If you want to go out and see what a big rock show can be, we're there to do it.

People love the music of Styx. Both bands are rock legends, and there are a lot of classic rock fans in the Lehigh Valley.

Sports betting is the rock of Gibraltar. It's American, like apple pie. That will always be there. People love to bet on it. People love to bet on their football games.

Some of the craziest people I know, some of the coolest guys I know who party and go crazy and play rock shows and have tons of tattoos, they will still go to church on Sunday and do their best to live that kind of a life.

Someone put a lid on the bucket. We missed all 17 of our 3-pointers. We were 17-of-74 from the field. We were 16-of-31 from the line. Castle Rock out-hustled us and out-worked us. We had a big enough lead that we were able to hold on, but we did not play with a sense of urgency and we missed a lot of shots.

My small business resourcefulness gives me the rock and my knowledge of the Internet is the sling. When Goliath falls, the people will be happy to see special interests fall along side of him.

My office doubles as a karaoke den for the neighborhood. There are strobe lights and Rock Band plastic guitars, a disco ball and a fog machine and some other things. I have a really long work day, and you might find me doing karaoke by myself late at night.

My my, hey hey Rock and roll is here to stay

My mom is the rock of our family. She keeps everyone together, everyone going straight forward. She's an unbelievable woman, raising four kids, moving to a different country (while) barely speaking English, she's a tremendous person. Both of my parents are my real-life idols.

My younger son is a rock archivist practically; I'm sure things have filtered out of that - it's in the air in this house.

My wife is a rock in the best sense of the word. She is the true foundation of everything this family is and will be.

My wife (Danielle) is my rock and has kept me mentally strong.

My wife stood by me like a rock in the rough ocean of mankind. The base was made but I had to brush my knowledge day by day to stay in the race.

My reservation going into this was that no matter how good it turned out, criticism would soon follow. You can't attempt a rock classic (especially a cult band like the Velvets) and not get a few sneers. But the important thing here is that maybe we might help turn a new generation on to this amazing art rock band and change the perspectives of a few unknowing listeners.

My mom loved rock n' roll. My father hated it. We couldn't play it when he was around. He liked classical music and Duke Ellington.

My memoir is completely not a rock 'n' roll wife's memoir,

Many have to hit rock bottom before they want to make any changes. We show them they're not alone, and we offer them the chance to realize they can make those changes.

Look! Don't be deceived by appearances -- men and things are not what they seem. All who are not on the rock are in the sea!

Marty was huge. That's the Marty we know and the Marty we trust. He's an aggressive, confident guy. He's been a rock back there for us all year.

Mars still remains the astrobiology community's number one choice for 'nearest rock with life,' but there are many researchers who argue that the moons of Jupiter are better bets. In particular, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto are all thought to hide vast oceans of liquid water beneath their icy, outer skins.

Marshall played pretty well; they've only lost to Rock Bridge since we beat them at their place.

Lindsey has been a great competitor for Council Rock North for the past four years. She has excelled in any and every event in which she has competed.

Liquid rock from inside the Earth -- magma -- had been trying to get out. It found a mountain in the way and actually started pushing up and breaking that mountain apart, 5 feet a day.

Lionel can play anything: totally out, blues, tear-jerking stuff, rock and African, ... Carlos didn't know him, but he trusted my judgment. When Lionel played, he blew everyone's minds -- the audience and Carlos' band. Their jaws were hanging.

Lit is awesome I used to rock out to them in ninth grade.

Live has come to a point where we're finally comfortable with being a big rock band and dealing with the absolute change of circumstance we went through during the last five to 10 years, ... We don't have to lash out against it anymore.

Little Rock is more like home to me than Augusta. This is where my roots are.

I was the illegitimate child of the legitimate theater. I had no training. I came from downtown rock and roll, and when I came in and auditioned for the Broadway revival of 'Hair,' I had no eyebrows - kind of a Bowie-esque glimmer kid. And it was hard representing the flower power era when we were stone cold punks.

I still have some years left to win more tournaments, ... So, hopefully at Rock Barn, I can have another good week.

I still put that into Devil's Playground. I believe there's a punk rock attitude to it. I don't think if you put it on you'd necessarily go, 'That's punk rock,' but I've never lost the punk rock attitude.

I think rock & roll has prepared me for a lot of flexibility.

I think rock music is getting better. The best (selling) music has been hip-hop for quite a while. So those guys are making the money and making the videos.

I think reuniting original lineups is awesome. Ultimately, that's what people want to see. You know, you see elder statesmen of classic rock doing it whether it be REO SPEEDWAGON or STYX doing it. You know, getting as many of the original members that are still around. You see them doing it, you see metal bands doing it, pop bands DURAN DURAN , everybody's trying to do that. I think what everybody realizes at some point is that if you can make those things work it's really cool. Ultimately, that's what the fans want to see when they go see those bands. They want to relive that piece of their youth or that piece of their life when that band was doing what they do best. So, I think given the right circumstances, those things usually fare pretty well for everybody. And most importantly, the fans are happy about it.

I think probably with any performer, but maybe with rock music especially, the audience wants to see the singer being real, and exploring, and not doing a rehearsed routine, so I'm just constantly looking for new things to try. I'm really curious out there, and my curiosity has led me into all kinds of bizarre situations.

I think music is so diverse today, and bands are so diverse. If you were a rock band in the Eighties, you kind of had to stick to one thing. Now, in this age of Coachella and European festivals and stuff, it's kind of anything goes, so that allowed us to try different things.

I think of it like, if I am surviving in the wild, how do I get around? Like a mountain lion, jumping rock to rock.

I tease them about geezer rock and now they're seeing it themselves.

It encompasses the area from the rock cut to the Cherry Creek Road intersection. The project will involve the expansion of the existing bike path and will allow bicycles on both sides of the street.

I stumbled on this little scene. And little by little, that scene took over my life, ... You could make a living being a blues musician. There were a lot of clubs where you could play this type of music every night. And a lot of roots rock clubs, and bands like the Holmes Brothers, Chris Whitley and Blues Traveler playing opposite sides of the street corner. And a lot of camaraderie. Nobody was thinking of record deals, so there wasn't any feeling of competition.

I think he was one of the great rock drummers.

I think he's a class player. He's proven he's one of the best fast bowlers for as long as we've been playing and I'm sure he'll be in the World Cup and lead the attack as he always has and do well. He's a big-match player, when the World Cup comes around McGrath will take the new rock and do extremely well. I don't think there's any doubt about Glenn McGrath being there.

I suppose poets have written sonnets for a thousand years about being in love. A lot of people say, 'I love my husband, I love my wife,' but I believe they really mean they're in love with their husband or wife, which is quite different from loving your dog. I loved her, I thought she was charming. I respected her intellect She could get a rock to follow her down the road. She was captivating. But there was a terrifying side to her that you would never want to rouse. Hopefully, it could be dampened and eased as she had a better life for the first time in her life.

It creates problems for our residents in the south. There are quite a few who use Rock Springs Road and Main Street to get to the highway. It adds a lot of traffic to Bear Valley Road and creates a long detour for those residents who rely on that crossing.

It definitely won't be a rock record, ... If I wanted to make a rock record, I'd just do one with Hootie.

I stopped being a village boy who thought he could throw any rock through any wall and started thinking about being a guy who could last longer.

I think Monday's game with George-Little Rock is going to be a good ballgame because we'll be able to play relaxed. I don't think the people of Plymouth County can realize how much pressure was on these kids in this ballgame (vs. RSM). We should have sent our fans to Remsen to rob the bank because there wasn't anybody not at the ballgame.

It has nothing to do with whether I'm the best or whether I'm a rock and roller or whether I'm a blues singer or whether I'm none of those things. I'm part of history.

It hasn't got the scuzzy rock of the Vaselines, or the more refined scuzzy rock of Eugenius. It comes from writing songs on an acoustic guitar. I bought one again and, playing it in a public place, the songs just started to flow out.

I thought it sounded great, but at the same time I said, 'I think I am going to puke,' because you can't mess it up. Either you go out and you nail it or you quit the business, pack up and move to some strange country where no one knows who you are. It was really that much pressure, but what was really interesting was that once I met Sir Paul McCartney, all of that went away and ... he brought everything down to a level that made it more real rather than surreal. And that was very helpful because in my mind he is one of the greatest legends of rock and roll.

I thought it was. I got caught in the whole thing about using unidentified sources, except my sources are not unidentified, I know them. But I got caught up here, you're exactly right. I just I assumed, 'Hey, it's rock 'n' roll,' you know? But since I don't know it, I retracted it within minutes, and I feel bad about it. I feel terrible about it.

I'm still waiting for him to rock the white jacket with the rolled-up sleeves. I think it'll happen.

I'm so fascinated about this. I have so many friends who are hitting 40 and are flipping out. I think it hasn't been talked about so I'll be interviewing a bunch of people about it. I want to interview movie stars and rock stars, people on the street and then I want to interview Hillary Clinton.

Mankind's yearning to engage in sports is older than recorded history, dating back to the time millions of years ago, when the first primitive man picked up a crude club and a round rock, tossed the rock into the air, and whomped the club into the sl

Man, 2013, I would expect an album from B.o.B and a Rock EP as well. My Rock EP is like... I take pride in my work and I'm not going to do something just to say that I can do it if I ain't really passionate about doing it. I'm very passionate about my music. Sometimes I take it too seriously.

Most rock journalism is people who can not write interviewing people who can not talk

We never set out to write a better album, it just happened that way. We never write a 'punk' song, we're just a rock band doing what we do.

The acquisition of Rock Financial advances Intuit's Web strategy by giving us the mortgage expertise, technology and marketing resources to truly revolutionize the mortgage process,

(The alternate settlement) is not really to the liking of many of us. But we're between a rock and a hard place.

The album is kind of hard to compare to our previous work. Our stuff in the past has been very rock 'n' roll and punk pop. We definitely elaborated on what people would expect from us. The new songs are very new and different. We definitely kept the roots so you see flavors of that.

That was a real treat, to have the real pedigree of progressive rock to play for us.

That would be good for the kids. Council Rock played great. They played like you have to play to win.

That was one of the things that James Taylor said about us when he inducted us into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame; that this was a real working band. It's very obvious when people come down to see the show tonight, they'll understand that this band has been getting along better personally and musically for the past couple of years and we're flying.

That was one of the most comfortable things about leaving baseball was to leave the environment. It's very much like a rock star existence - the nightlife, the hotels, lack of privacy... There's a lot of temptations out there. It was nice getting away from it.

That was kind of strange ... yeah. It's definitely been a strange couple of years, those things combined with the fact that my daughter was born as well, which was one of the best times of my life. Mixed emotions, and I think in the album, there are highs and lows. I think we don't let that saturate it too much -- we still look at it as a rock 'n' roll album, and we try not to unload on the listener too much with emotional burdens -- but it's an honest record, and we're honest lyrically, and I think you can listen to it in different ways.

That's the only negative ? the guys play so well sometimes it becomes too easy. But it's what I said before ? an obligation of entertaining, knowing that when you go into an arena, for some people that might be the only time they watch you play. As a professional you have an obligation to play at a high level ? it's almost like a rock band going on the road.

I was really pleased with my run today. ... My running has been up-and-down lately. I had a 16.44 in Little Rock recenty, then had a 17.24 in the Hope Watermelon 5K last month.

I was ready to get back into music and classic rock and roll was then making a big comeback. It was perfect timing. I felt rejuvenated.

I was only fond of the music up to a point. Rock and roll wasn't really my love.

I was born at the beginning of rock and roll. I got to experience the entire evolution of popular rock and roll music even before it started.

I was not a musician at the time. I had an acoustic guitar and I used to sing folk music and Bob Dylan songs. I loved rock and roll though.

I wasn't afforded the opportunity to return to school. I'm caught between a rock and a hard place. I want to finish school, but I don't trust these people. Are they really going to open again in March?

Most of them have developed a Celtic rock stage to get the younger people to come. We're packing the summers with them now,

Microsoft is caught between a rock and a hard place. It does not want to be dependent on a major rival but on the other hand, Overture provides a significant amount of MSN's revenue.

Michigan is not yet at rock bottom, but it will be in three to five years. We are a seeing an economic decline in the next five years.

Michelle is a very talented Irish dancer. Chris Foster has the same influences as mine. He's mostly interested in 1960s rock n' roll. The youngest member of the band is not yet 30 and the oldest is approaching 50, so we have a broad range of musical experience. We all bring those different influences in when we play.

Meloy's balladry brings to mind vaudeville, ragtime, Tin Pan Alley, 'Sweeney Todd,' the Victorian and Edwardian eras, Kurt Weill and Nick Cave, 1960s psychedelic rock pop and roaring pub sing-alongs.

When Sweden's Jan-Ove Waldner travels to China to play table tennis, he is mobbed when he leaves his hotel as if he were a rock star walking around Manhattan or a soccer star walking around Europe.

We have one county with 20 percent of the (district's) population and that's Rock Island County. We have to field a candidate that can carry Rock Island County.

You came to climb,And you endure --So turn your face to the rock of Time,Make one more foothold sure!

You came to climb, And you endure -- So turn your face to the rock of Time, Make one more foothold sure!

White Rock Lake is a refuge from city life. If we lose that, we lose our natural beauty ... and I don't want to lose that.

We couldn't get played on FM rock or country radio. Now the Burritos are more popular than ever. Who knew?
