Too Much Quotes - Page 5

• Most people you'd tell "I'm gonna be a musician," they'd say, "you're crazy, you're gonna starve, you're gonna be poor, a drug addict, go to jail, you'll never make it, there's too much competition, it's a terrible business," etc. But my chorus teacher in high school said, "you've got what it takes to be a really good professional musician, you should consider it." That was an epiphany for me. So I thought, well, maybe I can help somebody, too.

• I can't listen to so much music at the same time. I think you really have to have a diet. You're just processing too much, there's no place to put it. If you go a long time without hearing music, then you hear music that nobody else hears.

• If you make people laugh too much, their blood becomes - I believe it is acidic as opposed to alkaline. It changes the oxygen level in the blood, and people are likelier to pass out at that point.

• La estadística trata, o debería tratar, de la investigación científica y de cómo hacerla mejor, pero muchos estadísticos creen que es una rama de las matemáticas. Estoy de acuerdo en que el físico, el químico, el ingeniero y el estadístico nunca saben demasiadas matemáticas, pero sus objetivos deben ser mejorar la física, la química, la ingeniería y, en el caso de la estadística, la investigación científica. El hecho de que en un estudio determinado esto implique más o menos matemáticas es incidental.

• I'm an optimist and my heroines seem to be that way, too. It's too much work to be cynical and distrusting. That doesn't mean I create perfect stories and perfect people, however. What this means is that my stories are resolved in a manner that leaves the reader with a feeling of hope and happy expectation . . . and wanting to reach for another one of my books.

• My music doesn't really sound like punk music, it's acoustic. And it doesn't really sound like folk music 'cause I'm thrashing too hard and emoting a little too much for the sort of introspective, respectful, sort-of folk genre thing. I'm really into punk and folk as music that comes out of communities and is very genuine and very immediate and not commercial.

• En cierto sentido, el periodismo puede ser a la vez útil y perjudicial para un escritor de ficción, porque el tipo de escritura que hay que hacer como periodista es muy diferente. Tiene que ser clara, sin ambigüedades, concisa, y como escritor a menudo intentas hacer cosas más ambiguas. Creo que escribir ficción es a menudo un antídoto contra la lectura y la escritura de demasiado periodismo.

• You ever find yourself being lazy for no reason at all? Like, you pick up your mail, you go in your house, you realize you have a letter for a neighbor. You ever just look at the letter and go "Hm. Looks like they're never getting this. It'll take too much energy to go back outside. I'm gonna get that to them later on. Right now I gotta watch some 'Love Connection.' They got some new host on there."

• Siempre que sales a comer tienes que pedir el aperitivo. Porque el aperitivo es sólo una excusa para una comida extra. Siempre dices: "Veamos, empezaré con las 80 alitas de búfalo... y ¿tienen queso azul bajo en calorías? Porque no quiero llenarme demasiado".

• La comedia son quejas. Es una recitación de quejas, ya sean inconsecuentes, superficiales, como "mi mujer compra demasiado" o "los niños de hoy en día", todos esos temas pasados de moda, o si son más profundas y algo más reflexivas, sobre el desequilibrio social y las desigualdades, y la insensatez del comportamiento humano. Suele ser una queja.

• Vi que los líderes ponían demasiado énfasis en lo que algunos llaman estrategia de alto nivel, en intelectualizar y filosofar, y no lo suficiente en la ejecución. La gente se ponía de acuerdo sobre un proyecto o una iniciativa y luego no salía nada.
