“I got on the phone with the president of my label and I said, "Obviously, I write songs in a lot of styles and play a lot of different kinds of music. We're getting toward the end of our business collaboration. If you could envision a record that you wanted to hear from me, what kind of record would it be?" It wasn't like asking him to fill an order, it was really just a conversation. For all the things I'd ever asked him, this was one thing I'd never asked, and I don't know why. So I was curious. And the thing that he was most interested in hearing was a solo record.” IfsKnowsWritingKindSaidDifferentEndsPlayWantedSongOrderPresidentRecordsOne ThingStyleConversationAskingPhonesHearingCuriousLabelsCollaborationDifferent KindsSoloDifferent Kinds Of Music Author:Ryan Adams

“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
“Now the code of life of the High Middle Ages said something entirely opposite to this: that it was precisely lack of leisure, an inability to be at leisure, that went together with idleness; that the restlessness of work-for-work's sake arose from nothing other than idleness. There is a curious connection in the fact that the restlessness of a self-destructive work-fanatacism should take its rise from the absence of a will to accomplish something.” ShouldSaidSelfFactsAgeTogetherMiddleConnectionsOppositesSakeAccomplishAbsenceCuriousCodeDestructiveLeisureInabilityIdlenessMiddle AgesRestlessnessSelf Destructive Author:Josef Pieper
