We have a memory cut in pieces. And I write trying to recover our real memory, the memory of humankind, what I call the human rainbow, which is much more colorful and beautiful than the other one, the other rainbow.
When John Coltrane passed, we were in the church for the memorial. Albert Ayler came walking in playing, real out there. He was actually mourning through his horn. Mourning, but it was also like a call to wake up. Wake up!
Many say that no real avant-garde - which I'll define as a combative group of free-thinking artists - can exist anymore. The media's reach is too vast. New artists and movements get snatched up too quickly.
Molly Shannon and I used to always talk about that we really felt strongly that we were comedic actors, that we weren't comedians. You just played things real and the comedy came out of the context.
In a lot of comedy shows, there's a safety net where you don't assume anything of real consequence will happen.
The sound of the piano is always something that is a real kind of comfort food to me.
Last week, the House of Representatives passed a resolution honoring the victims and heroes of September 11th. As we commemorate the anniversary of 9-11, we must also remember that the threat is still very real today.
My favorite commencement addresses are the ones that get real and don't make too many promises.
With country, it's hard to penetrate the thick layers of commercialism that have been applied like shellac coatings over the real thing.
I'm real. I believe what I'm saying. If Motel 6 wasn't the type of operation they say it is - and I stay at them when I travel - I wouldn't do their commercials. That comes through on the radio, and that's what it's all about.
Jeff Kwatinetz and Ice Cube and Amy Trask - all those people are real visionaries, and the league that they started has been phenomenal. And my job as commissioner now is to kind of help continue to build, improve the fan and the player experience.
We write stories about common people and common things. That's what Skynyrd always is about - the real working class of America.
I grew up in a hippie commune so I have a real hippie part of me.
My view was that the campaign had been a sacred thing, that it had been a real compact, because I was there and I saw the connection that Clinton made with people, and the connection that they made with him.
Look at the real prodigies, and I look like nothing compared to them.
I guess my view of America is of a real bighearted country, real compassionate.
The real competitive advantage will come to countries and companies who differentiate their offerings through education, innovation, and productivity.
I found out I had a real love for comedy and comedy writing. The logic was, there weren't too many female comedians, so I thought I might as well try a field that had fewer competitors than the field I was in, which was acting, singing and dancing.
Statistics are just a compilation of people's stories put on paper, and legislation is our attempt to address those real challenges for people.
My records are basically a litany of complaints against the world, and I'm quite like that in real life as well.
