Single Uncle Jam

Famous quotes containing the words single, uncle and/or jam:

    “We fight our way through the massed and leveled collective safe taste of the Top 40, just looking for a little something we can call our own. But when we find it and jam the radio to hear it again it isn’t just ours—it is a link to thousands of others who are sharing it with us. As a matter of a single song this might mean very little; as culture, as a way of life, you can’t beat it.”
    —Greil Marcus (b. 1945)

    “Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle;
    I am no traitor’s uncle, and that word “grace”
    In an ungracious mouth is but profane.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “If you hadn’t been in such a hurry to cremate me, I wouldn’t be in the jam I’m in now.”
    —Seton I. Miller (1902–1974)
