A Quote by Ray Charles

I got a cow that went dry and a hen that won't lay, a big stack of bills that gets bigger each day. — © Ray Charles
I got a cow that went dry and a hen that won't lay, a big stack of bills that gets bigger each day.
I have learned that I, we, are a dollar-a-day people (which is terrible, they say, because a cow in Japan is worth $9 a day). This means that a Japanese cow would be a middle class Kenyan... a $9-a-day cow from Japan could very well head a humanitarian NGO in Kenya. Massages are very cheap in Nairobi, so the cow would be comfortable.
Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people who take pictures, you know, carry a camera. Because if I did I'd have stack's and stack's and stack's of different act's. I got a lot here - I know what I done.
Though the hen should sit all day, she could lay only one egg, and, besides, would not have picked up materials for another.
My biggest faults is that the faults I was born with grow bigger each year. It's like I was raising chickens inside me. The chickens lay eggs and the eggs hatch into other chickens, which then lay eggs. Is this any way to live a life? What with all these faults I've got going, I have to wonder. Sure, I get by. But in the end, that's not the question, is it?
Custard: A detestable substance produced by a malevolent conspiracy of the hen, the cow, and the cook.
Every day I wake up and my popularity gets bigger and bigger.
Sometimes I get lazy and let the dishes stack up. But they don't stack too high. I've only got four dishes.
It takes one hen to lay an egg, but seven men to sell it.
You start to compete with yourself when your catalog gets bigger and bigger... I mean, everybody wants the next 'Bless the Broken Road,' but you don't write those every day, so it's difficult.
I've got a big closet of scripts, and a big stack of scripts on the side of my desk, because you get a whole bunch. Nothing's going to be perfect, and I realize that; but I am a perfectionist, so you go through a lot of stuff.
Lion Babe, on a work day, is definitely a process. I obviously could do it by myself, but I definitely prefer not to. It's a lot of hair. I used to start with little pieces, and then it just got bigger, and bigger, and bigger.
I secured Big Jam through my buzz in the city. My name got bigger and bigger throughout my 1st year of rapping.
Flying makes me feel like a sex maniac in a whorehouse with a stack of $20 bills.
In 2014, with the help of Donald Trump, my friend Chuck Sonntag and I got a group of Big Tree Boys together to organize fans to help keep the Bills in Buffalo. We started Bills Fan Thunder, and we played a small public role in saving our team.
I think some of the big characters, you know, they do these adventures, but they've got something about them, they've got this charisma, and they've got to have a sense of humor. Because whether it be very dry, or very silly, they've got to be likable.
Shaun Wright-Phillips has got a big heart. It's as big as him, which isn't very big, but it's bigger.
