Al Kaline bought a tee and a ball and swung at it all winter. Look where it got him: the Hall of Fame.
There are times when wisdom cannot be found in the chambers of parliament or the halls of academia but at the unpretentious setting of the kitchen table.
I thought the Hall of Fame was for superstars, not just average players like me.
Television is a prisoner of dialogue and steady-cam. People walk down a hall, and the camera follows them around a corner.
The Musicians Hall of Fame is chosen by thousands of your peers. So it's the real thing.
Believe me, I don't like being photographed. I don't like myself in pictures. Actually, I do sometimes.
I respect the Hall of Fame, and if they think that I'm worthy enough, I would be very honored. And if they don't, I gave it all that I had to this game.
I never went to acting school. I started in the circus, music hall, I was in a group, did kids' bits. I've always had this kind of insecurity being uneducated.

-the future is a most marvellous creation. For in it lies all the mystery of raw potentiality-a boundless reservoir of all that could be-formed by the illimitable interactions of conscious human beings with their individual environments, circumstance...
When we want mood experiences, we go to concerts or museums. When we want meaningful emotional experience, we go to the storyteller.
The whole idea of government is this: If enough people get together and act in concert, they can take something and not pay for it.
See, I have to do my best because I am not as glamorous or as well-equipped like a Beyonce Knowles or Michael Jackson, where their band members are close to 100-150 people. They even have great equipment which is flown along with the artists. They ha...
I've done a show at the Largo Theater called The 'Thrilling Adventure Hour.' We read, like, radio teleplays. It's a send-up of radio dramas from the '30s and '40s. We just did a Kickstarter for that so that we can do a web series and a concert film.
The difference between the American version of 'Live Aid' and the British one - in England, if you wanted a cup of tea, you made it yourself. If you wanted a sandwich, you bought it. In typical American style, at the American concert, there were lami...
Michael Sunday and I are the original members of the band. We first did it just for charities and benefit concerts. It was very ad-hoc, and before we knew it, we were really a band. We went through several drummers and guitarists before we were happy...
