“Throughout Jack's violin solo at the Hollywood Bowl, the audience was glued to their seats. That was the only way he could get them to sit down.”

“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?”

“Hoping something will happen soon, so she can sit down & watch it with a fresh bowl of popcorn.”

“If a Negro got legs he ought to use them. Sit down too long, somebody will figure out a way to tie them up.”

“Get the bow going!
Let it scream to me:
Violin! Violin! Violin!”

“Get books, sit yourself down anywhere, and go to reading them yourself.”

“I was in Big In Japan between '77 and '78. Then I went solo, releasing a couple of singles. Then I joined the Dancing Girls who turned into the Sons Of Egypt who were then whittled down into Frankie Goes To Hollywood.”

“It first starts with an intrepid rat... that goes up to the toilet bowl of the Speaker, just as he's sitting down to do his business... Some readers who couldn't get past the first few pages... called it disgusting and upsetting, and I said, "Well, you're describing the behavior of Congress..."”

“I usually do field work before I sit down to play with somebody; in other words I go listen to them play in a concert, listen to their music, tapes, whatever, so that when I sit down with them, I have a vague idea what their temperament is about and what kind of musical patterns they enjoy playing. Solo, I am the captain of the ship, and I decide what I will play and dictate the pace of the show.”
