“Living in a constant chase after gain compels people to expend their spirit to the point of exhaustion”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“I do wonder if people aren't just interested in music that has meaning, ... Because there's been an exhaustion through forms and genres, like rock and electronica, doing away with melodies, and I think maybe we're always interested in songs - folk songs, hymns, whatever. Patriotic songs with strong melodies. It's the basis of what I'm doing, just focusing on traditional songwriting.”
Sufjan Stevens
“We don't want these people passing out due to heat exhaustion.”
Larry McKinnon
“I do wonder if people aren't just interested in music that has meaning, ... Because there's been kind of an exhaustion through forms and genres, like rock and electronica, doing away with melodies, and I think maybe we're always interested in songs - folk songs, hymns. Whatever. Patriotic songs with strong melodies. It's kind of the basis of what I'm doing now, just focusing on traditional songwriting.”
“We are urging people to exhaust every avenue before bringing their pets here.”
Chuck McDevitt
“I've exhausted my savings. I'm living off of my insurance settlement check until I can get my business back open and get back up on my feet. I'm lucky that I didn't lose my home, though my business did get looted and burnt to the ground -- one of them -- and the other one lost one-third of its roof. It's five months into the rebuilding process now and I'm still waiting on my insurance checks.”
Dana Bordelon
“Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion . . . . I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”
Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
