Thinking Quotes
My biggest poetic influences are probably 20th-century British and Irish poets. So I suppose I'm always listening for the music I associate with that poetry, the telling images, the brevity. I want to hear it in my own work as well as in the poetry I read. However, I think I'm generally more forgiving of other poets than myself.

Song Quotes
In the future, women will have breasts all over. In the future, it will be a relief to find a place without culture. In the future, plates of food will have names and titles. In the future, we will all drive standing up. In the future, love will be taught on television and by listening to pop songs.

Audiences Quotes
We were walking a fine line, making it a sort of challenge for audiences to figure out what's going on without clues except what you're listening to, but at the same time, we wanted to make sure we didn't leave the audience completely at sea. I'm still not sure which bucket we finally tipped it into.

Again Quotes
We knew it would translate well to radio, but what we didn't expect was the personal and emotional reaction we got from listeners - people telling us they feel like kids again listening to the ballgames on the radio. We hear that especially from displaced fans - a Dodgers fan who lives in Dallas or a Red Sox fan who lives in Los Angeles.

Bandwidth Quotes
Why in the world would somebody want to eat up your bandwidth listening to radio music over the Internet on PC speakers -- when it's cheaper for the company to go and buy stereos for everybody? When you look at the cost of what these people are doing in terms of bandwidth and Internet access, it's extremely expensive.

Asked Quotes
This recent announcement proves that free markets work. After listening to its customers, McDonald's is taking responsible steps to provide them with the tools they've asked for to make informed choices. At the end of the day, it's personal responsibility, including educated, individual choices about food intake and physical activity, which make the difference--not government intervention or litigious arm-twisting.

Aware Quotes
(What she meant was fencing is relevant) because of the moment-to-moment interaction of two actors together who have to be listening and aware of each other, and who have to be so completely involved in what's going on in the moment that everything else sort of becomes secondary. It's the focus, the one-on-one interaction, the moment-to-moment.

Attention Quotes
Tubby is really good at pulling things together. He's sharp at those things. He sees the big picture. Recruiting is hard. A lot of young men are not honest with coaches. It's a tough job because even the coach does not always know what is going to happen in recruiting. That's why we'll just keep listening to what Tubby says and not pay attention to anything else.

Information Quotes
We live in a profoundly nonintellectual culture, made all the worse by a passive hedonism abetted by the spread of wealth and its dissipation into countless electronic devices that impart the latest in entertainment and supposed information - all in short (and loud) doses of "easy listening".

Changes Quotes
We are a second half team. We have some great coaches that are able to see what changes we need to make and the kids are really listening to them. I am happy about being un-beaten, but even happier with the fact that we have an off week and we are as healthy as we have been since the start of two-a-days.
