Famous quotes containing the words rock, roll, hall and/or fame:
“Most rock journalism is people who can’t write, interviewing people who can’t talk, for people who can’t read.”
—Frank Zappa (1940–1994)
“Rock & roll doesn’t necessarily mean a band. It doesn’t mean a singer, and it doesn’t mean a lyric, really.... It’s that question of trying to be immortal.”
—Malcolm McLaren (b. 1946)
“Bernard always had a few prayers in the hall and some whiskey afterwards as he was rather pious.”
—Daisy Ashford (1881–1972)
“I have made a very rude translation of the Seven against Thebes, and Pindar too I have looked at, and wish he was better worth translating. I believe even the best things are not equal to their fame. Perhaps it would be better to translate fame itself,—or is not that what the poets themselves do? However, I have not done with Pindar yet.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
