Loudspeakers should be made to be destroyed and... disposable.

Loudspeakers should be made to be destroyed and... disposable.

I persist in performing.

Performing is very much like cooking: putting it all together, raising the temperature.

The basic notion was the idea that the loudspeaker should have a voice which was unique and not just an instrument of reproduction, but an instrument unto itself.

If you put yourself in a situation of unpredictability and then find that it's completely possible to accept it, then you become an observer.

I am perfectly willing for my music to exist with somebody else's taste.

I've never been able to arouse any interest in myself for digitally produced sound, and so the computer turns me off.

Most electronic equipment uses the principle of amplification. You need filters, modulators and mixing equipment which have gain stages. By piling these components up, I was able to work without any sound generators and I made several pieces in that manner.

I've always felt that there's a point where a piece seems to be alive, that is, living. And that's the point where I know the composition is finished.

In fact, entitlement spending on programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security make up 54% of federal spending, and spending is projected to double within the next decade. Medicare is growing by 9% annually, and Medicaid by 8% annually.

The road is a word conceived elsewhere and laid across the country in the wound prepared for it a word made concrete and thrust among us.

In such a diversity it was impossible I should be disposed to melancholy.

The greatest challenge of community life is to create synthesis embracing diversity in a unified whole resolving differences with the healing spirit of love and dedication to the good of the whole.

The Federal Reserve, the Treasury, all the regulator agencies - if there's a problem of the financial mechanism in society, the only one to fix it is government. They've got a legitimate role.

Life is more fun if you play games.

I think the time has come for the United States to do even-handed justice.

I've always had fond memories of cooking Thanksgiving.

I love 'Latina'! You guys have always been so supportive of me and my career. Now I have my family, and it's just awesome.

I decided to be an inventor when I was five. My parents had given me a few various enrichment toys like erector sets, and for some reason I had the idea that if I put things together just the right way, I could create the intended effect.

Graphene is a single plane of graphite that has to be pulled out of bulk graphite to show its amazing properties.

I was in Paris for nine years, starting in '98. One of the great things when I was first there were these wonderful CD collections, selling for almost nothing. For ten euros, you'd get three CDs of all the Gershwin songs.

If you really want to help the American theater, don't be an actress, dahling. Be an audience.

It is not solid wood that can become a flute but the empty reed.

I don't believe in spending money lavishly, now that I'm making money.

I wish that I had bridged the feminist movement and the anti-war movement better than I did.

Somehow I got to be one of five or six actors that the directors would use as guinea pigs at this directing colloquium, where people pay to listen to and watch the directors direct.

There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.

Brute animals have the vowel sounds; man only can utter consonants.

The Bay of Pigs was an operation the United States endorsed. That was a preventive operation. We were afraid that Castro was going to subvert the hemisphere.

There are over a million people running around the United States that were born to parents just on Match.com alone, to say nothing of the other properties we run, so that's a million lives that our company just had a little to do with in bringing their parents together.

The best decisions are always made quickly and changed slowly, not made slowly and changed quickly.

We tried to set up a company that patterned ourselves after Southwest in all the fun, the spirit, the great people, the smile, the efficiency side of it, but we've added some extras that people aren't used to finding on Southwest.

I am grateful to theatre for making me what I am today. But it's not like theatre is my first love. I am equally attached to cinema, which is, actually, a child of theatre, since it borrows heavily from it.
