Label Quotations
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
Once you label me you negate me.
Soren Kierkegaard
I guess you'd call me an independent, since I've never identified myself with one party or another in politics. I always decide my vote by taking as careful a look as I can at the actual candidates and issues themselves, no matter what the party label.
Jackie Robinson
It may be necessary temporarily to accept a lesser evil, but one must never label a necessary evil as good.
Margaret Mead
There is a tremendous range of children with a PDD label.
Temple Grandin
When we label anyone 'bad', we will have more trouble dealing with him than if we could have settled for a lesser label.
William Glasser
At my second record label, they told me and other female artists that some of us were going on the chopping block. I was 19... and it was devastating.
Katy Perry
I signal with an independent label, Continuum. After that I put out a totally independent record, sold fourteen thousand of them from my basement, bought a house, started raising my kid, made a decent living.
Kid Rock
I never wanted to do the same kind of movies over and over anyway, so my theory on it all is I'm just gonna try and dodge the label and keep doing what I am doing.
Matt Damon
We were not given any statistics as to how many records were pressed on the blue label. I used to ask Bob Shad how we were going to get paid from record sales and what I got for an answer was not to worry about the business end of the deal.
Phil Harris
I'm fighting the label of "Black" actress simply because it's very limiting in people's eyes, especially people who are making movies.
Whoopi Goldberg
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
Why do we pigeonhole and label an artist? It is a sure way of missing the important, the contradictory, the things that make him or her unique.
Lukas Foss
I heard the Bloc Party record Japan before it came out in the UK as they are on the V2 record label. I think it has a great vibe and has great songs. I also think the Kings of Leon are right up my street.
Kelly Jones
Police are reluctant to label a murder as a possible serial homicide.
Pat Brown
I took the process of doing as much myself as I could like a duck to water. I set up my own label and publishing, etc, and it was a fun learning curve two decades ago.
David Knopfler
All you needed was a couple of instruments and a few chords and you could be on an indie label.
David Byrne
But I'm real conscious about what I do. I don't care what the label is. I'm looking at the outcome of it.
Mike Epps
Giving a phenomenon a label does not explain it.
Taylor Caldwell
I am an American. Black. Conservative. I don't use African-American, because I'm American, I'm black and I'm conservative. I don't like people trying to label me. African- American is socially acceptable for some people, but I am not some people.
Herman Cain
I realize now that I was a feminist and the minute I heard the word I certainly knew it meant me, but at that time I don't think we had the label yet. But there's no doubt about it that I was born a feminist.
Marlo Thomas
Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.

You can't come out on a record dissing the system and be on a label that's connected to the system.

The will to label will always prevail over what's being labeled, usually at the expense of either truth or understanding.
Boyd Rice
I made this record without a record label.
Jules Shear
The opportunity to record the song came when Phil Collins' record label, Atlantic, was doing a tribute album to him and they asked all these different artists to do renditions of his songs.
Deborah Cox
Despite a large body of work in films, TV, theatre and concerts, I am viewed by many as a Jewish artist. I do not resent the label, except for the fact that I disapprove of labels in general.
Theodore Bikel
There is no such condition as 'schizophrenia,' but the label is a social fact and the social fact a political event.
