“....chemotherapy's success record is dismal. It can achieve remissions in about 7% of all human cancers; for an additional 15% of cases, survival can be "prolonged" beyond the point at which death would be expected without treatment. This type of survival is not the same as a cure or even restored quality of life.” HumansWould BeQualityCasesRecordsAchieveTypeSurvivalCancerExpectedCuresTreatmentQuality Of LifeChemotherapyRemission Author:John Diamond
“I was at a dinner party with a group of people, and we were talking about fake names. You know, how its difficult to come up with a really great fake name. Its a very specific type of gift. You don't want to go too far into the silly, and you don't want to go too far into the banal. I always thought one of the funniest names ever was Gern Blanston, which came from a Steve Martin routine on one of his early records.” PeopleKnowsWantFunnyNamesDifficultPartyTalkingKnow HowRecordsGroupsTypeCome UpDinnerSillyFakeRoutineReally GreatDinner Party Author:Paul Rudd

“What are the characters that I discern most clearly in the so-called Anglo-Saxon type of man? I may answer at once that two stickout above all others. One is his curious and apparently incurable incompetence--his congenital inability to do any difficult thing easily and well, whether it be isolating a bacillus or writing a sonata. The other is his astounding susceptibility to fears and alarms--in short, his hereditary cowardice.... There is no record in history of any Anglo-Saxon nation entering upon any great war without allies.” MenWritingWellsMayTwoWarCharacterNationsDifficultAnswersRecordsTypeCuriousAlliesCowardiceEnteringInabilityAlarmsDifficult ThingsIncompetenceGreat WarHereditaryAnglo SaxonSusceptibilitySonatas Book:Mencken Chrestomathy Source: Mencken Chrestomathy
“I really wanted to get that dynamic on the record onto people and let them know it wasn't just a simple strumming along the guitar type of thing without ramming it down their throats so I kind of went the opposite way and sang some of the songs more quietly which allowed for the louder parts to sound as though there were more. It was the only way singing those songs made sense to me.” PeopleKnowsWayKindMadeWantedSongSoundSimpleRecordsTypeSingingOppositesGuitarThroatStrumming Author:James Vincent McMorrow
“I value my core fans I got from the hood. I think a lot of things might hit home with them, like problems with the law or how I talk about partying - all the different topics I cover when I do rap. But I also value my suburban fans who take a liking to my music and like the way I change cadences. I appreciate all of them cause both types of fans push me to record all the time, both push me to give my best when I do a show. Both push me to be the best rapper and not just do it as a hobby, but do it as a job and take it seriously and put pride in it.” ThinkingWayGivingDifferentShowsProblemHomeMightJobsLawValuesCausesPartyRecordsFansPrideTypeAppreciateRapCoreBeing The BestRapperHobbiesTopicsJust Do ItHoodCadenceBest Rapper Author:Gucci Mane
“All those "getting hit/losing rings" sounds tend to be recorded toward the end of a recording session. Depending on the type of game, those efforts and screams can be pretty rough on the voice, so they usually like to record them at the end.
