“Learn to be good readers, which is perhaps a more difficult thing than you imagine. Learn to be discriminative in your reading; to read faithfully, and with your best attention, all kinds of things which you have a real interest in,--a real, not an imaginary,--and which you find to be really fit for what you are engaged in.” KindRealReadingDifficultInterestAttentionImagineReaderFitBe GoodAll KindsEngagedBeing RealImaginaryDifficult Things Book:The Works of Thomas Carlyle Source: The Works of Thomas Carlyle

“You will have all kinds of trials to pass through. And it is quite as necessary for you to be tried as it was for Abraham and other men of God, and (said he) God will feel after you, and He will take hold of you and wrench your very heart strings, and if you cannot stand it you will not be fit for an inheritance in the Celestial Kingdom of God.” IfsMenFeelsHeartKindSaidFitTrialsGods WillKingdomsAll KindsStringsInheritanceKingdom Of GodAbrahamCelestialMan Of GodStorms Of LifeWrenchesHeart Strings Author:John Taylor
“When you think of diversity, George Duke fits that bill better than a lot of people. He's played a lot of straight-ahead jazz with people like Nancy Wilson and Cannonball Adderley; he's played a lot of fusion with his own groups, with Stanley Clarke; and, you know, he did the rock thing with Frank Zappa. He's written all kinds of big arrangements for people like Burt Bacharach. So, he's covered the board. He's still a great pianist.” PeopleThinkingKnowsKindStillsBigsWrittenGroupsRocksFitDiversityBillsJazzAll KindsBoardsCoveredFrankArrangementsDukesPianistWilsonFusionNancyStanleyZappaCannonballs Author:Christian McBride
“I remember reading a book that was on songwriting at some point that I found in my dad's store, and just... I did not relate at all. I've always hated structure of all kinds, it just doesn't work for me. I can never fit into the schedules of other people. It's like putting a schedule on your song, and it doesn't allow you to be moved by your own music.” PeopleKindI CanBookRememberSongReadingFoundDadFitMovedStructureMy DadStoresAll KindsRelateHatedSongwritingSchedules Author:Larkin Grimm
“Housing in New York seemed to fit Norman Lear. In addition, his shows confronted all kinds of social issues - racial separation and prejudice being foremost among them. The Evans of Good Times were the first black family to be the focus of a primetime American TV show. A lot of the people we came across in filming were familiar with the role Norman played in catalyzing important national conversations about race. They seemed grateful to him for trying to move the needle.” PeopleTryingKindImportantMovingBlackFocusFitPrejudiceGratefulSeparationFamiliarAll KindsGood TimesSocial IssuesLearBlack Family Author:Solly Granatstein
“Be yourself and do what you actually like doing as an artist. Don't try to think too much about where am I gonna fit in here, and how is this gonna be received, and who is gonna like this? Just do what you like doing and make sure that you enjoy doing it. If you do that and you get good at it by practising, then people are gonna come around - there's so many people out there that listen to all kinds of music. It's important to just do what you like, otherwise the fun gets sucked out of it.” PeopleThinkingTryingKindImportantArtistFunEnjoyFitAll KindsBeing Yourself Author:Muneshine
