It may be necessary temporarily to accept a lesser evil, but one must never label a necessary evil as good.
Margaret Mead

It was important to me to find a label that wouldn't back out after a first single. Everyone's so used to hearing me with Hootie, they're going to be skeptical.
Darius Rucker

It was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today. The 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, family leave, health insurance, Social Security, Medicare, retirement plans. The cornerstones of the middle-class security all bear the union label.
Barack Obama

It's an album that is a little bit different and probably isn't easy to get out. It's not likely that a major label would have picked it up and said that they had a smash hit record.
Billy Sherwood

It's fun seeing my label on someone's behind - I like that.
Calvin Klein

It's just someone has labelled us as having a different label to do what you do. I find that labels are the worst thing in the world for artistic expression.
Ornette Coleman

It's not like I'm taking 20 grand from the shows. I mean there's no record label, so this is a genuine thing. And I think most people can see that. I think that anyone who knows me, knows I do things with integrity.
Mike Peters

It's one thing to be a fan and it's another thing to be a label.
Gerry Beckley

It's pure Black Label. It's about violence and booze. That's all it is. There is no plan.
Zakk Wylde

Leonard Chess passed, and that was the end of the Chess label for that time.
Solomon Burke

Love is the word used to label the sexual excitement of the young, the habituation of the middle-aged, and the mutual dependence of the old.
John Ciardi

Magic Realism is not new. The label's new, the specific Latin American form of it is new, its modern popularity is new, but it's been around as long as literature has been around.
Terri Windling

Make no mistake about it: once a band has signed a letter of intent, they will either eventually sign a contract that suits the label or they will be destroyed.
Steve Albini

Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.
Dougray Scott

My manager was Buddy Glee, who put me together with Mike Curb, and was basically the idea to bring some soul to the label and bring something different to the label besides the Hank Williams situation.
Solomon Burke

My record label is treating me like I'm a new artist, which is exciting after all this time.
Rosanne Cash

Nobody from my label called any of their labels to get this done. Most of it happened very naturally. Mary and I have been friends for a long time. Then Jay-Z offered.
Angie Martinez

Not everything I do is gossip or bedroom. To the contrary, I think that's just an easy label to dismiss me and to dismiss the new medium.
Matt Drudge

Once you label me you negate me.
Soren Kierkegaard

Once you're signed to a label you compromise.
Talib Kweli
