Rock Quotes
-
In most sports, your brain and your body will cooperate... But in rock climbing, it is the other way around. Your brain doesn't see the point in climbing upwards. Your brain will tell you to keep as low as possible, to cling to the wall and not get any higher. You have to have your brain persuading your body to do the right movements.
Jo Nesbo

I love a smart, well-written show, and '30 Rock,' well, you can't get any better than that. Tina Fey poos funny. There's nothing that she does that isn't funny. That show is an example of how brilliant she is. It's so smart. They've done some brilliant commentary about the 'Housewives' with 'Queen of Jordan,' their show-within-the-show.

Barriers have been broken: rappers are singing, and singers are rapping. You might catch a rapper on a rock song, a pop artist on a hip-hop song - there are so many different things that are going on today. That is the same way in which we live our lives; we're all over the place. I like to try different things.

We've all kinds of kinds of hells and damns in country. But we don't have that other. We haven't progressed that far yet or degenerated. Who knows? . . . There are a few that are trying it. It's true. Some of these guys say it 500 times. I said (to Kid Rock), "how many times do you say it on an album -- 500 times? He just has that little grin.
Hank Williams
