“Guitar Town was out, and it was doing okay," [Steve] Earle recalled. "But the label didn't want it to happen. Jimmy [Bowen] certainly didn't. He didn't like the record. He didn't like me. But it was out there and got really good reviews, though mostly from the rock side of things. . . . "'Guitar Town' was doing okay as the second single," Earle said. "Then around the same time, Bruce Springsteen walked into Tower Records in L.A. and bought a couple of things. He got Willy DeVille's first solo record, and he bought Guitar Town. A kid who worked there at Tower reported it, and it ended up in a column in Billboard. I sold fifty thousand records the next week and got booked all over the place. So that was it: I had a career largely because Bruce bought my record and it got into print.”

“Фізики зазвичай не надто уважні до заяв якихось там службовців швейцарського патентного бюро, тому, незважаючи на велику кількість корисної інформації, що містилася в них, статті Айнштайна майже нікого не зацікавили. Щойно розгадавши декілька найбільших загадок Всесвіту, Айнштайн спробував влаштуватися лектором в університет, але його кандидатуру відхилили, згодом хотів влаштуватися вчителем у середню школу, але й тут йому відмовили. Тож Айнштайн повернувся на свою посаду технічного експерта третього класу – але, звісно ж, не припинив думати.”
