numbers people leaving
I just don't understand, if they see numbers [of CEO salaries]that represent people, how they can somehow skirt around that and morally justify taking or ruining those lives and leaving them with nothing. That, to me, is violent crime. It's certainly more violent than selling grams of pot to other adults.
war people body
No music is going to stop the war. What's going to stop the war is a large amount of body bags, or a large amount of people in the streets, protesting it before it starts.
people watches scar
It's the ones without scars - those are the people you have to watch out for...
people kind imagine
I don't know how people do it these days - paparazzi and that kind of thing. That's something I can't even imagine.
people long band
One thing you might suggest to a young band is don't get involved in any kind of long-term contract because everything changes on a bimonthly basis: The way people hear music and access it, the way it is distributed.
successful thinking people
I think what happens is when something becomes successful, then a lot of people take credit for it in such ways that it takes credit away from you.
people challenges ifs
If people don't like what I'm doing I really don't have time to hear it. I'm doing something good with my life and I challenge them to do the same.
summer song people
These pop songs almost feel like tabloid journalism, in a way. It's c**p that people seem to like. And I don't know if it has meaning. I don't know if one of the pop songs of the summer has any fibre in it. People are consuming it, and is it healthy?... Maybe there's some healthy property or some restorative property that I'm not receiving. It seems like it has a really high fructose content.
thinking people guy
I'm not ready to be that guy who can meet with world leaders and all that. It's tremendous what Bono does. I don't know if I could do it, not the way he does. I don't think many people could.
thinking people opaque
I realized in the early days I just didn't edit at all. But I think you become a little more cagey with your lyrics when you know more people are going to hear them and make assumptions about you as a person. Realizing that, you want to be a little more opaque.
technology people voting
I'd like people to be educated on the voting machines, making sure that our democracy isn't being hijacked by computer technology. There's no reason there can't be a paper trail on those machines.
fun couple people
It's fun singing with other people who are really good singers. There's something kind of poignant about braiding a couple vocals.
real fall people
Sometimes, whether you like it or not, people elevate you. It's real easy to fall.
order people appreciate
It's important to have a life and spend time outside of those things [music and politics], in order to appreciate what you've achieved as far as just spending time with people you love, and doing things like painting.
