Most folks are like a barb-wire fence. They have their good points.
I don't think people in power have the potential to do anything like that to me. I feel as though as long as our music is available, folks are going to hear it.
But more than anything else, for the British folks Irish people were all terrorists. So when we went to Britain, it was always a lot of resistance to U2. And that's why we came to America.
I absolutely think that when we talk about family, faith, community, I think it's important for Democrats to be able to connect with folks where they live.
I've always thought about myself as somewhat of a folk musician. I just write words.
For most folks, no news is good news; for the press, good news is not news.
Frankly our government has no idea what they're doing on many, many fronts, folks.
There's no doubt that there's some folks who just really dislike me because they don't like the idea of a black president.
We’re being ripped off and screwed by a bunch of liars, thieves, crooks, and criminals, and they’re not the folks below. Don’t look in the streets, look in the corporate suites.
I can't stand folk who are all snobby about reality TV.
More and more, I see myself as a folk musician, and someone who values context.
Folk art has never been much about politics; it's about action and utility.
If folks can learn to be racist, then they can learn to be anti racist. If being sexist ain't genetic, then, dad gum, people can learn about gender equality.
Religion turned some folks belligerent.
I don't like politics, hypocrites, folks with poodles.
It is easier to talk about issues; it is easier to say you're a feminist because it's actually awesome to be one. The panopoly of people identifying as feminists is really excellent now that we've come to a point where all these really interesting voices are rising up and saying they're feminists - women of color, trans people, gay folks, everybody. It's an exciting time to actually define as that because it means that people are really feeling like their voice is what's the most important thing in the movement, and I love that.
I don't go see big, silly movies. I like small things about regular folks, you know?
It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues.
Isn't it terrible the way some unworthy folks are loved, while others that deserve it far more, you'd think, never get much affection?
I have a deep rooted folk sensibility that I can't get away from completely.
