Earl Scruggs is the guy who really made that leap with using three fingers in a rotating fashion to create this fast rippling sound that had never been heard before.
Have been unavoidably detained by the world. Expect us when you see us.
Perfection is like chasing the horizon. Keep moving.

In a world where people die every day, I think the important thing to remember is that for each moment of sorrow we get when people leave this world there's a corresponding moment of joy when a new baby comes into this world.

I hate recording all the shows for the week in one day, because I want to be able to mention current events and pop culture. If Madonna punches Britney in the face today, I want to reference that on 'Wine Library TV' tomorrow. Monday's episode is always the best, because it's hot off the press.
We are always saying to ourself. . we have to innovate. We got to come up with that breakthrough. . . we're only paid for breakthroughs.
