Stay It, Don't Say It?


Quote of the day:
“Hey, Cherie! Why is our music so bad? I just heard The Beatles’ ‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ album for the first time; I think it’s genius. There’s no band now, not the Killers, Yellowcard or anyone, that is doing anything that great.
--Loves The Beatles

“Hey, Loves! It’s hard to be second. There’s a reason The Beatles were The Beatles. They broke ground, and everyone’s been trying to catch up for 40 years. I do think there are other great bands around; however, the groups that stand the test of time, like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and the Who, do so for a reason. They’re a cut above. Congrats on discovering the best of the best.”
--Cherie Bennet, in her advice column to teens and young adults

Quote of the day no. 2:
“What made any of us think that the place we are trying to reach is far, far ahead of us somewhere and that the only way to get there is to run till we drop?”
--Barbara Brown Taylor

Quote of the day no. 3:
“The cynical take on the contradiction between Mr. Bush’s solemn vow not to say we’ll stay the course, while promising in not so many words but with equal solemnity to stay the course, is that although the president adamantly insists he doesn’t follow the polls, Karl Rove makes no bones about the fact that he does, and avidly.”
--Alan Abelson
