work
Regardless of your support, you need to make work.
change mean
I do think you can change the past and the present somehow. Even if something has already happened, it doesn't mean it's settled.
theirs
When a writer makes something, it's theirs forever. That is the magic for me.
hand materials sitting work woven
My work is on the one hand laboured, and on the other completely happenstance and intuitive. But that's the swish in the work, I think. It's really important to me that the work isn't just sitting on top of something, that the materials are woven together - that they are recognisable and from the world.
people
People don't know how to behave in public anymore.
draw kids proper public rather trying
Parents are trying to be friends with their kids rather than draw the line and tell them what proper public behavior would be.
comedians normal wrong
I need wrong to get laughs. I need a normal world so that I can be abnormal, and that's my problem. Comedians need prejudice.
city detroit drunken kenny major notice opening performed rogers surprise visit year
Detroit is drunken idiots. It was no surprise to me. I performed with Kenny Rogers for one year as his opening act, and I got to visit every major American city and notice the audience, and Detroit was one of the worst.
government wanna
I don't want to overthrow the government. I wanna fire 'em.
audience comic gratuitous
I don't say that I'm going to be like every other comic that's blue, or gratuitous use of language. I do try to have my own standards: I don't do everything the audience wants, and I do try to surprise them.
people
I know what people laugh at. I know their vocabulary.
committed continue facts fail families ignore labor organized positive provide scrutiny surprising vision
Wal-Mart is committed to making a positive contribution to working families and we do it every day. We're disappointed that some continue to ignore the facts and fail to provide any real vision for the future. It's not surprising that organized labor is under such scrutiny when they have so little to say.
baseball order three
There are three things in my life which I really love: God, my family, and baseball. The only problem - once baseball season starts, I change the order around a bit.
economic greatest intention longer overall reside
The overall intention is to try to have mares reside longer in the state. That's where the greatest economic development is derived.
