Playfulness Quotes (page 54)

Wynton Marsalis quote: "I believe in professionalism, but playing is not like a job...."
I believe in professionalism, but playing is not like a job. You have to be grateful to have the opportunity to play. Wynton Marsalis
I wanted to play rock and roll when I started playing. Nobody at that time ever thought about songwriting. You sang songs, that's all. You sang other people's songs. That's all there were. Bruce Cockburn
It's not like I don't want to play the guy next door. But sometimes they're not the best written or the most complicated. But I am very, very particular about my bad boys. There are certain types of characters I will not play. I've said no so many times to so many parts that are just way too dark. You have to be careful. Kim Coates
Whether you're a quarterback and you just threw a pick, or you're a corner and you just got beat for a touchdown, you've got to have a short-term memory, shake it off and play the next play. Steve Mariucci
I look at it this way. I'm not putting age limits on what I can do. As long as I can do the job to help the team win and feel like I'm playing at a high level, which I feel I can do for a long while, I'm going to play no matter what my age is. Dan Marino
I bought a piano once because I had the dream of playing As Time Goes By as some girl's leaning on it drinking a martini. Great image. But none of it worked out. I can't even play Chopsticks. But I've got a nice piano at my house! George Clooney
It's definitely weird, because pretty much everybody owns the Tony Hawk videogame. Just going over to people's houses and watching play me as I walk in - that's actually happened a few times and that's so weird. It's like, 'Dude, you're playing me right now.' It was too weird. Bam Margera
I got addicted to Tetris, playing it in my basement, I was missing all these airplane flights over it. After the fourth one that I missed, I realized I needed to get rid of this thing - so ever since then, I don't play video games any more. Bam Margera
I used to go with my parents and loved it, I was in school plays, and I started reading plays before I started reading novels. I'll defend it to the hilt. When theatre is good it is fabulous. Patrick Marber
I hoped the dramatic power of the play would rest on that tension between elegant structure - the underlying plan is that you see the first and last meeting of every couple in the play - and inelegant emotion. Patrick Marber
Richard Manuel quote: "I play patterns. I'll make up a pattern and just play it."
I play patterns. I'll make up a pattern and just play it. Richard Manuel
Mickey Mantle quote: "The only thing I can do is play baseball. I have to play ball...."
The only thing I can do is play baseball. I have to play ball. It's the only thing I know. Mickey Mantle
I think the world is very much embracing this whole concept of musicians going out and playing their instruments and playing music for music as opposed to music that has something to do with some form of image or imagery. Les Claypool
I had sat in one day in Central Park with Bonnie and Delaney, and Duane was playing with them, so I asked if he wanted to work on an album. You never had to say to him how to play the guitar. Herbie Mann
A guitar riff played on a piano doesn't come close to the purity of it being played on a guitar but I faked it enough to get by. Barry Mann
