It's a big surprise to me about America that there are 40 million people prepared to vote for (Trump). They wouldn't want him as a friend. No matter who you are, you wouldn't want him on your bowling team or to have dinner with him or anything. They would recognize it immediately in a guy. A big blowhard, braggart.
Randy Newman
Things aren't black and white in the world.
Randy Newman
Short people got no reason to live.
Randy Newman
I like the performing. And interviews, even. And the stuff that's not sitting in a room by yourself with empty paper. But I never loved writing, to tell you the truth.
Randy Newman

I am half a man, holy Jesus, what a drag.
Randy Newman
I've written about a lot of different things, but the whole idea of writing for another character is unusual for pop music... Most of the repertory is love songs, and most of mine isn't. I don't know if that's a mental defect, or shyness, or what.
Randy Newman
Sometimes what I'm writing is more important to me than the rest of my life. It's more important to me that I'm writing well than anything else.
Randy Newman
I hate having to wait. I've got the thing done. I just want to see what happens.
Randy Newman
I like to write my lyrics on clay tablets.
Randy Newman
I'm dreaming of a white president. Just like the ones we've always had. A real live white man. Who knows the score, how to handle money or start a war. Wouldn't even have to tell me what we were fighting for. He'd be the right man, if he were a white man.
Randy Newman
They don't respect us, so let's surprise them, we'll drop the big one, pulverize them.
Randy Newman
But I don't want to sing everything out of the side of my mouth, I want people to understand what I mean.
Randy Newman
Rednecks always made me nervous to play, but I'm glad I wrote it and I continue to play it. It's just that the language is so rough.
