That's 1-2-0-2-4-5-6-1-4-1-4, ok...hello, is this the White House? Hi, could I speak to President George Bush? George isn't available? But it's our last night...hello...could I leave a message for George? I was just gonna say I wouldn't be bothering him from now on. I'm gonna be bothering Bill Clinton now.

People are interested in bridges. I guess I've always been more interested in what goes on underneath bridges - Bono The Sexy Wilderbeest, Rolling Stone interview

The Edge is a really, really intense guy, he's got this incredibly high I.Q. He's great at sorting out issues of worldly importance, it's just that he forgets the everyday things, like the chords or songs, where he is, and so on

"Then Bono arrived, and he meant to play the guitar, but he couldn't play very well, so he started to sing. He couldn't do that either. But he was such a charismatic character that he was in the band anyway, as soon as he arrived. I was in charge for the first five minutes, but as soon as Bono got there, I was out of a job."

B: I'm passionate, I'm passionate and I'm hot...um..smiles...I think that has a different meaning in the states...
Speaking at a WTO dinner about the Africa Aids issue. Going from memory so don't shot me if it was not verbatim.
B: I'd like to see Smashing Pumpkins fill a fucking stadium.
Speach in the early 90's after winning a Grammy or American Music Award for best alternative aritist (or something like that, he was obviously offended by the catagory & competition, funny thing was that Smashing Pumpkins became really big and the other nominees were nobodys, he just picked the one group who probably did fill a fucking stadium or two).
I am avoiding studying for a huge/life altering test that I have to take tomorrow. Some parts of this thread are to close to the subject matter "analysis of literature and usage of rhetoric in language" so I am off to procrastonate elsewhere.
