“When you play the bars, you pay your dues. It does matter that you know those things [songs]. And the great thing for me, too, is that I draw on that stuff as influences.

“Bob Dylan seems to me a totally pernicious influence - the nasal whine of death and masochism. Certainly, this would be a more cheerful world if there were no Dylan records in it. But Dylan and his audience mirror each other, and deserve each other; as Marx said, a morbid society creates its own morbid grave-diggers.” IfsWorldSaidSeemsWould BeAudienceRecordsInfluenceDeserveMirrorsGravesBobCheerfulDylanMorbidPerniciousMasochism Author:Robert Anton Wilson
“Influences come from everywhere. I don't really feel like I had too many influences for the first record because I grew up listening to music in church, and that was pretty much it.

“Recognition for a job well done is high on the list of motivating influences for all people; more important in many instances than compensation itself. When someone is promoted, a promotion that everyone could see coming because of an excellent record, the entire department is stimulated. For it is clear, then, that promotions are based on merit. A promotion that seems to come out of the blue, which is always the case when no one knows what the next fellow is doing, causes nothing but resentment and a further weakening of the will to work.” PeopleKnowsWellsImportantDoneSeemsJobsNextCausesCasesClearRecordsInfluencePraiseBlueFellowsListsInstanceRecognitionExcellentMeritDepartmentResentmentPromotionCompensationWell DoneWeakeningJob Well Done Author:John Moulder Wilson
