“O give me new figures! I can't go on dancing The same that were taught me ten seasons ago; The schoolmaster over the land is advancing, Then why is the master of dancing so slow? It is such a bore to be always caught tripping In dull uniformity year after year; Invent something new, and you'll set me a skipping: I want a new figure to dance with my Dear!” WantGivingYearsI CanLandFiguresTaughtMastersGoes OnTenSeasonsGive MeDancingDearCaughtDullSomething NewBoresAdvancingUniformityTripping Author:Thomas Haynes Bayly
“You're not going to be able to look like anyone else, no matter how hard you try, unless you're a mimic, then you're not acting, you're just mimicking. You can't go on being John Wayne, that's John Wayne. So you're not going to steal from John Wayne. I'm not going to steal from John Wayne and you're not going to come back and say 'Didn't you get that from the circus?' You know. But he is one of those people who instructs me, whom I look up to - whom I think is one of the masters of his craft that I am so enamoured of.” PeopleThinkingKnowsTryingLooksMatterHardAbleActingMastersGoes OnStealingCraftsLook UpCircusWayneMimicking Author:Morgan Freeman
“Americans are wonderfully courteous to strangers, yet indiscriminately shoot kids in schools. They believe they are masters of the world, yet know nothing about what goes on outside their shores. They are people who believe the world stretches from California to Boston and everything outside is the bit they have to bomb to keep the price of oil down. Only one in five Americans hold a passport and the only foreign stories that make their news are floods, famine, and wars, because it makes them feel good to be an American. Feeling good to be American is what they live for.” PeopleKnowsWorldFeelsBelieveWarStoriesFeelingsKidsSchoolBitsFiveMastersGoes OnNewsStrangerOilFeel GoodCaliforniaBombsShoreFloodBostonFaminePassportsCourteous Author:Brian Reade
“I get so much from having the opportunity to interface with the younger people and to bring information to them and to represent our culture and our way of life. The feeling and the warmth and the love, it's unbelievable. The type of exchange that goes on between students and teachers or visiting people who are doing master classes, and not just when they're musicians. Even general classes, when the students are not necessarily musicians.” PeopleWayFeelingsCultureOpportunityClassTeacherInformationStudentsMastersTypeGoes OnMusicianWarmthUnbelievableVisitingInterfacesTeacher And Student Author:Wynton Marsalis
“If workers are more insecure, that's very 'healthy' for the society, because if workers are insecure, they won't ask for wages, they won't go on strike, they won't call for benefits; they'll serve the masters gladly and passively. And that's optimal for corporations' economic health.” IfsAsksEconomicMastersGoes OnHealthyBenefitsWorkersStrikesCorporationsWagesInsecureOptimal Author:Noam Chomsky

“It stung this new rejection, but it was also a relief to put an end to the ambiguity and incertitude.

“I stopped playing in the Masters in 2004, I stopped playing in the Par-3 [Contest], and now it's time to end this part of my Masters career.

So I'll have to be content to watch.” WayWantEndsCareersWatchesForeverMastersGoes OnShotsCapabilityContests Author:Arnold Palmer
