Famous Quotes & Sayings

Ellen Stofan

When my sister and I were kids, swimming down in Charleston, there was this pizza parlor that had this old Dixieland band play, and I just loved Louis Armstrong and the sound of his voice, and I got up there with the band and started singing Louis Armstrong songs when I was a kid. I have no idea why, but I did it and I loved it.

Michael Barrett

I have always favored a mix. I don't believe in segregating music into categories. I think that exercise tends to be very arbitrary. I like to quote the jazz great Louis Armstrong on the subject: 'There are only two types of music, good and bad. I play good music.' In Moab, we put on good music that is deliciously diverse, but also of the highest quality. Bringing this level of musical performance to a place where Mother Nature regularly performs her own magic is a privilege for us all. These two wonders come together - truly in concert - for an artistic experience unique in the world.

We have neighbors complaining about the noise and it?s just not worth it. We?re not out to shut people down, but we?re not going to tolerate problems. I guess you could say that the city is less willing to overlook bars than it was in the past.

Richard Walton

What the state government said, unless it falls into some other category, if someone breaks into a neighbor's barn and steals a $4,000 ATV, he's going to go to county jail unless he has a prior felony or is on probation when it happened, ... If someone, however, breaks into 18 churches, this may be considered a pattern, this is not just, 'oops, I made a mistake.'
