#quotes #tanith-lee #mary-renault #writing

They have a different persona and mindset, and you have to figure out what works best within your communication with that athlete.

I am very pleased to be involved with the Daniel Pearl Music Days committee because its message resonates with me on a very personal level, My own career is an example of the universal power of music, especially the power of Hip Hop, to bring people of different backgrounds together for a common purpose. I hope that my commitment to the Daniel Pearl Music Days committee will encourage all music lovers, both amateurs and professionals - to get involved with the Music Days performance network and contribute to the "Harmony For Humanity" e-Stage. ~Russell Simmons
#quotes #russell-simmons #music
I'm an untrained musician. Untrained musicians don't really have any music theory, they don't have a lot of rules. We break the rules, but it's mostly because we don't know what the rules are. It's easy for us to go to certain places, so I'm not surprised that a lot of people were amused by my songwriting style. ~Frank Black

An author must be nothing if he do not love truth; a barrister must be nothing if he do. ~Anthony Trollope
