More From Garry Shandling

In the end it all comes down to talent. you can talk all you want about intangibles, i just don't know what that means. talent makes winners, not intangibles. can nice guys win? sure, nice guys can win - if they're nice guys with a lot of talent. nice guys with a little talent finish fourth, and nice guys with no talent finish last.

It's not the 'nice' guy who brings about real social change. 'nice' guys look nice because they're conforming. it's the 'bad' guys, who only look nice a hundred years later, that are the real dynamic force in social evolution.
Real Nice Years
There were two recording studios in bellingham. one was really expensive, a "nice studio." we were at the point where we were young and irreverent. we would scoff at the idea of a nice studio. "why would you want to go to a nice studio? oh wow, they have really expensive gear. ooh, that's really fancy. well we've got an eight-track. we've got it going on here." now that we have the resources, we're like, "oh wow, a nice studio is pretty nice! they do have nice outboards here. it's actually a pretty good place." it's funny how much changes so quickly.

My father had taught me to be nice first, because you can always be mean later, but once you've been mean to someone, they won't believe the nice anymore. so be nice, be nice, until it's time to stop being nice, then destroy them.

If romney would go ideological in explaining obama, it would help. we gotta stop the, 'he's a nice guy' stuff. nice guys don't do what obama is doing. nice guys don't say and do and act the way obama is saying, doing, and acting.
Nice Guy Acting
Instead of thinking in terms of chords, i think of voice-leading; that is, melody line and bass line, and where the bass line goes. if you do that, you'll have the right chord. [these voices] will give you some alternatives, and you can play those different alternatives to hear which one suits your ear. keep the bass line moving so you don't stay in one spot: if you have an interesting bass line and you roll it against the melody, the chords are going to come out right.
