Randy Newman
College men from L.S.U., went in dumb, come out dumb, too.
Randy Newman
I like Public Enemy a great deal.
Randy Newman
I've always had a lot of respect from the people I respected.
Randy Newman
Still, it's clear that there are lots of people out there who are uncomfortable [about racism]. The Civil War was a long time ago but there are aspects of it that remain unsettled.
Randy Newman
It's very hard to get rich and famous at a young age and handle it well.
Randy Newman
We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground.
Randy Newman
They don't respect us, so let's surprise them, we'll drop the big one, pulverize them.
Randy Newman
I hate having to wait. I've got the thing done. I just want to see what happens.
Randy Newman
