Like The Quotations Of Chairman Mao with noticeably less brutality, today we present:
THE WIT AND WISDOM OF BOPPIN' (LIKE THE HIP FOLKS DO)
He who forgets the pasta is condemned to reheat it.
We often ascribe to a Machiavelli what is actually the work of the Three Stooges.
An infinite number of tracks can each be THE greatest record ever made, as long as they take turns.
Dig what you dig.
There is no such thing as a guilty pleasure in pop music. (Refer back to above "Dig what you dig.")
RIGHT NOW is always the best-ever time to be a pop music fan. Everything you've loved up to now is still with you. And there's so, so much more, old and new, out there somewhere, just waiting for you to discover it.
Great records don't care what year it is.
Any record you ain't heard is a new record.
Enthusiasm is its own reward.
Time is a harsh mistress. Also a lousy kisser.
Time is the enemy.
Clowns are just loud mimes.
Coffee makes me feel better in the morning than beer has ever made me feel at night.
I still enjoy an occasional beer at night.
We're bringing "Furshlugginer" back.
You screwed up? You said something stupid? You're just trying to fit in here.
When an eel swims on out and it bites off your snout, that's a moray.
"Because I can" has not historically proven to be acceptable justification for bad behavior.
Never underestimate the power of indifference. Or go ahead and underestimate it. I don't care.
