“Hard work is the main thing-hard work and dedication. And I think a great part of it is goal setting. You set your goals to a point where they're attainable, but far enough away that you have to really go get them. And every year I push my goals a little bit farther away, and every year I work a little bit harder to get them. Every goal that I've set, I've been able to achieve. That's been very fulfilling.” ThinkingYearsLittlesHardEnoughAbleBitsGoalAchieveHard WorkLittle BitHarderSettingSettingsDedicationFulfillingSetting GoalsHard Work And Dedication Author:Rafael Palmeiro
“As I have grown older I am more and more convinced that I have not grown up, that my powers have not come to me, not my real wisdom to do and achieve the right thoughts. I lack some dear grace. I cannot seem to steady down and get the single eye. There is a curriculum in living in which I have not studied. This may be happiness. I want to know it; I should feel better prepared for immortality. I do not wish to arrive fagged at last and a bit slipshod in the spirit, as if I had a hard time all my mortal life.

“I am interested in politics but have stayed away from writing overtly political songs, or message songs, because I find it difficult to discuss politics intelligently in a 4-minute song. But I am finding there are ways to get bits and pieces of political thought across without preaching that the people have the power or we shall not be moved. Of course these sentiments have their place too - I'm not knocking Phil Ochs - but that's a different kind of music, songs to play at rallies, not to achieve a state of bliss.” PeopleWayWritingKindDifferentStatesPlayPoliticalSongCoursesBitsDifficultPiecesMinutesAchieveFindingsMessagesMovedBlissSentimentsDifferent KindsPreachingKnockingBits And PiecesDifferent Kinds Of Music Author:Dean Wareham

“The biggest issue for me is whether large numbers of Americans can begin to think that government can actually help make the country a fairer place. And that's partly a matter of policies that achieve results in terms of reducing inequality and raising middle-class and working-class incomes, which have been flat for decades. But it's also symbolic and rhetorical, it's whether Hillary Clinton can - or whoever's president - can persuade Americans that it's happening and that they can begin to trust their elected officials a little bit more and their institutions of government a little bit more.” ThinkingLittlesHas BeensCountryMatterHelpingGovernmentBitsPresidentTermResultsNumbersClassIssuesMiddleAchievePolicyLittle BitHappeningsInstitutionsClintonDecadesIncomeInequalityOfficialsMiddle ClassFlatsWorking ClassReducingSymbolicLarge NumbersRhetoricalElected Officials Author:George Packer
