More quotes by Randy Newman

You know, they say you can reduce genius to someone who spent 10,000 hours trying to get good at something. I'm not claiming either one of those. I haven't done anything for 10,000 hours but sleep.

I am half a man, holy Jesus, what a drag.
Randy Newman
If getting on the radio was a major motivation, I'd be one of the worst writers of all time. I admire people who do it, and I think it's a nice way to work, but I try to do the best I can and write what I like. I don't worry about it.

We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground.

Who would want to break into [the music business]? It's like a bank that's already been robbed.
