“I looked at my family and I said, "I've got a spouse. I've got three kids. There's no way I'm ever buying a music subscription service for the five of us. It's just not going to happen." So we wanted to do something really great for families... It wasn't easy. We had to convince the labels it was in their best interests, too.” WaySaidHappensKidsWantedThreeEasyInterestFiveMy FamilyLabelsBuyingConvinceReally GreatSpouseSubscription Author:Eddy Cue
“I have seen books made of things neither studied nor ever understood ... the author contenting himself for his own part, to have cast the plot and projected the design of it, and by his industry to have bound up the fagot of unknown provisions; at least the ink and paper his own. This may be said to be a buying or borrowing, and not a making or compiling of a book.” MayMadeSaidBookDesignIndustryPaperUnderstoodBoundsCastsBuyingPlotInkProvisionBorrowingInk And PaperFagots Author:Michel de Montaigne
“When I was little I knew my father had been an orphan and had lived in an orphanage. I was curious, but my father wouldn't satisfy my curiosity. He told only one story about the orphanage, and that was of sneaking out and buying candy, which he sold to other orphans. He said he had a pretty good business going - till he was busted! I guess he told that anecdote because he was the hero of it and I suspect he was rarely the hero as a child, more often the victim. There's a photo of the actual orphanage on my website, and you can see it's a forbidding looking place.” ChildrenLittlesSaidStoriesFatherHeroVictimCuriosityCuriousBuyingSuspectsCandyWebsiteOrphanAnecdotesGood BusinessOrphanageBustedSneaking Out Author:Gail Carson Levine
