“Take the particular trick of false names. It seems to us particularly odious. We think when we show our contempt for those who use this subterfuge that we are giving them no more than they deserve. It is a meanness which we associate with criminals and vagabonds; a piece of crawling and sneaking...Men whose race is universally known, will unblushingly adopt a false name as a mask, and after a year or two pretend to treat it as an insult if their original and true name be used in its place.” IfsThinkingMenGivingYearsTwoUseShowsSeemsUsedNamesRaceKnownPiecesParticularDeserveTreatsOriginalsJewCriminalsTricksInsultMaskContemptAssociatesMeannessCrawlingVagabondsSubterfuge Book:The Jews Source: The Jews
“'Modern Love' completes the EP as an intricate musical piece weaving in and out of complex rhythms. There is even a beatless ambient mix that shows Subb-an has more strings to his bow. We are always keen to push artists out of their comfort zone and really show the world what they are capable of.” WorldShowsArtistPiecesModernComfortCapableComplexesMusicalRhythmZoneStringsBowsComfort ZoneIntricateWeavingAmbientModern Love Author:Subb-an
“I've enjoyed photography, ever since I was a teenager, and I'm still at it.

“I don't understand the feeling of, the way people speak of writing as though it were, like, some kind of djinn to be summoned or like it's the Loch Ness monster or seeing a shooting star. It's a physical act. It is a thing you do with your muscles and your body and your willpower. Watch, I'll show you: get a piece of paper. Get a pencil. Put the pencil on the paper and write the word 'something.'” PeopleWayWritingKindBookShowsFeelingsBodySpeakStarsWatchesPiecesSeeingPaperYour BodyMonstersComicShootingMusclesComic BookPencilsWillpowerShooting StarLoch Ness Monster Author:Matt Fraction
“I grew up in the spoken-word community. Before everybody had a home studio, or before we could get booked for shows, open mics were the only way to be heard by other people. It really gave me a chance to develop as a performer. Reading a piece of poetry with no beat in front of 20 people is way more challenging than rocking for 10,000 people.” PeopleWayShowsHomeReadingCommunityChallengesChancePiecesHeardFrontsGrewGrew UpBeatsStudiosPerformersSpoken WordMics Author:Macklemore
“Comedians dissect jokes all the time. Comedians are beautiful structuralists. But ultimately it's an athletic endeavor. You have to be able to just hit the backhand. You can't think about all the pieces of it. You can't think about your swing. You just have to do it. Reading someone else's deconstruction of what I do, all it does is put me in my head. On nights when the show goes particularly well, I am not aware of its fluidity. A lot of nights I'm just worried that I'm not going to be as good as the script in front of me.” ThinkingWellsDoeShowsAbleBeautifulNightReadingPiecesFrontsJokesScriptsWorriedComedianEndeavorSwingsAthleticDeconstructionFluidity Author:Stephen Colbert
