John Barrow Quotations

It's not what you play but what you leave out that makes the difference.

Sometimes you feel isolated and vulnerable in a studio with headphones on having to peer at studio staff through the control room window.

If you never try, you'll never know what you are capable of.

People assume that because you have graced the same stage as the star act, in front of thousands, you must be reaping similar financial rewards. This is a complete fallacy.

Releasing a record is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the promotion of the product, but you have to play the game if you are to have a chance of competing in the market place.

Infinity is a player of great significance who appears on the stage only when the crucial questions of existence are raised. Infinity offers its services when we seek to know if the Universe began or whether it will ever end, whether life will always be part of its landscape, and whether there are tasks which can never be accomplished. Infinity challenges us to contemplate the duplication of ourselves and all that we hold dear, and to ponder the cogency of all possibilities, potential and actual. It undermines our sense of the precious by suggesting a randomly infinite universe will eventually conjure up the works of Shakespeare, somewhere, as if created by a regiment of monkeys armed with typewriters. Infinity also seeks to guard us from taking the wrong path in our quest to unravel the deepest of Nature's secrets about the ultimate structure of mass and energy.

The government has a responsibility to protect consumers from unnecessary gas price inflation. There should be zero tolerance for anyone who tries to profit off of fear, rumors, and tragedy. That's why I'm calling on the Federal Trade Commission to launch a full investigation of gas price manipulation. Because if we don't make an effort to figure out why this is happening now, we won't be able to stop it from happening again.

Music is 10% exhilaration and 90% utter disappointment.

You only can live on adrenaline for so long; one thing is for sure, it doesn't pay the bills.

This is a senior-group of ballplayers, and they have put in their dues as far as getting themselves prepared and it's good to sit and watch them play. They play good defense, they're so competitive at the plate, and they all want to hit it every time, and sometimes you have to push them up there when they're not having a good at-bat but most of the time they put the bat on the ball.
