Nebraska Quotes - Page 3

• Every time someone does a Western movie, people flock to it. It's like, we're continually programming to people who are least likely to watch us. People in Nebraska aren't watching things on the computer, they're watching television. Why aren't we programming things for them? We only program things that appeal to New York and Los Angeles and in many ways spit on the rest of the country.

• No one who reads this book will remain unchanged or unaffected-Julene Bair's story arcs from the cornfields of Kansas and Nebraska to the food on our tables and the gas in our cars. There is always a price to be paid, she reminds us, for the pleasures and comforts of this day.  If you read only one memoir this year, this is the one to read and pass along.

• Each of us is born with a series of built-in confusions that are probably somehow Darwinian. These are: (1) we're central to the universe (that is, our personal story is the main and most interesting story, the only story, really); (2) we're separate from the universe (there's US and then, out there, all that other junk - dogs and swing-sets, and the State of Nebraska and low-hanging clouds and, you know, other people), and (3) we're permanent (death is real, o.k., sure - for you, but not for me).

• If I was going for the popular vote I would've won easily. But I would've been in California and New York. I wouldn't have been in Maine. I wouldn't have been in Iowa. I wouldn't have been in Nebraska and all of those states that I had to win in order to win this. I would've been in New York, I would've been in California. I never even went there.

• Sanford es una pequeña ciudad al norte de Orlando. Es justo al lado del lago Jessup.Lake Jessup es el lago más infestado de caimanes en los Estados Unidos y yo vivo literalmente 5/10ths de una milla al norte de ese lago justo al lado del pantano aquí abajo. He vivido aquí desde el 94. Cuando me fui de Nebraska, mi padre consiguió un trabajo en una escuela cristiana privada en West Palm Beach. La gente dirá "No eres realmente un chico de campo. Eres de Palm Beach, Florida". Bueno, me mudé a West Palm Beach, FL que está muy lejos de Palm Beach, FL. Por algo se llama West Palm Beach.

• When I was a kid in Nebraska, a cantankerous farmer, known for plinking with his '22 at passing cars in which he perceived enemies, ingeniously rigged up a shotgun in his house, trained on the inside of his front door so as to widely distribute any intruder.

• In film, you have to present everything on the screen so it's the opposite of what I usually do with storytelling. It forced me to think about how people walk, where they sit at that moment. With Princess of Nebraska, it was just fun to watch because the movie was so far from the story. It was very much a different story.

• No me malinterpreten. Me gusta Disney World. Las salas de descanso están limpias como para una neurocirugía, y los empleados dicen cosas como "¡Hola, amigos!" y parece que lo dicen en serio. Uno se pregunta: ¿De dónde sacan a esta gente? Yo creo que de 1952. Creo que el viejo Walt se dio cuenta, por aquel entonces, de que con el tiempo habría escasez de gente alegre, así que metió a todos los residentes del suroeste de Nebraska en un congelador gigante con una enorme foto de Pepito Grillo en el exterior, y desde entonces la corporación los ha ido descongelando según las necesidades.

• Viviendo en una ciudad pequeña, no podías ir a ningún sitio los sábados en el que hubiera un partido en una tienda. Si estabas en el centro oías el partido. Si estabas en la gasolinera oías el partido. Recuerdo que cuando cortaba el césped me paraba para ver el partido de Nebraska. Lo ponía a tope fuera.

• I follow the baseball team on the Internet more than I do the football team. Generally you can get a Nebraska game anywhere. Before I started doing big arenas and stuff and had a tour bus when I was just working comedy clubs way back when I would always listen to the games in my hotel room on the Internet.
