Growing up, I started to realize I was surrounded by people who were passionately alive. Seventh Street felt raw, but I found it incredibly theatrical.
The Internet doesn’t just enable cool avatars and the shorter form. It also allows the deeper form: cross-linked blog posts, extensive research, simultaneous screens and raw debate footage that anyone can scan online, at any time.
I don’t have anything fresh in terms of raw foods or salad after 4 P.M. And no food after 7 P.M.
There’s something overwhelming about being in raw nature. It’s got an aura about it is that is really kind of majestic and spiritual.
I played in Velvet Revolver, which is a raw, bombastic blues band with a punk rock edge to it. It’s like everything is based around the blues, no matter what the groove is.
With Tory privatisations in the past we’ve seen how service users can end up losing out and getting a raw deal.
Ours is one continued struggle against degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the European, who desire to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir, whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness.
I was shocked to find that there were actually climate scientists who wouldn’t share the raw data, but would only share their conclusions in summary graphs that were used to prove their various theories about planet warming. In fact I began to smell something really bad, and the worse that smell got, the deeper I looked.
My life used to be governed by that. I would know what day it was because I would be at ‘Monday Night Raw’ or ‘SmackDown’ on Tuesday.
Listen to ‘Dream.’ It’s just me all the way. It’s like raw. It’s gutter. It’s real. It’s authentic. It ain’t like nobody else. Don’t sound like nobody else, no nothing.
There’s a great metaphor that one of my doctors uses: If a fish is swimming in a dirty tank and it gets sick, do you take it to the vet and amputate the fin? No, you clean the water. So, I cleaned up my system. By eating organic raw greens, nuts and healthy fats, I am flooding my body with enzymes, vitamins and oxygen.
The world is not to be approached, blueprint in hand, as if it were so much raw material waiting to be fashioned to someone’s design.
I lived in Scotland a long time, and I became aware of Mogwai really from the beginning. They seemed to be fusing hard music structure and sort of raw sonics. They’re just very creative thinkers, musical thinkers.
Women as a raw demographic unit exercise incredible power across every element of American life.
We rip out a perfectly good kitchen worth thousands of pounds, only to replace it with another costing roughly the same. The old one has to be disposed of, the new one had to be made. From raw materials, factory processes and transportation the extra effort is substantial. Overcomplication.
Amy Winehouse was not a person I ever met, and I can’t say that I am overly conversant in all of her music. I do have her albums, and years ago, when I first heard her sing, I thought she was extraordinary. The tone of her voice, her phrasing, her raw appearance – these qualities were extremely captivating to me.
I think ‘Raw’ is complacent in the fact that ‘Raw’s’ been the flagship of WWE. ‘Smackdown’ wants to be number one.
To young people born under the weird planet of the SAT, intelligence was equated with agility, with raw acuity. It produced a certain sort of person of which I was a typical specimen: the mental contortionist, able to rise to almost every challenge placed before him, except the challenge of real self-knowledge.
Whatever the raw material, the material itself is unimportant until it’s catalyzed by emotional fervor. So in the ideal exchange between me and my listeners, they wouldn’t ‘figure out’ my music. They would feel their pulse racing and the hair standing up on the backs of their necks.
Narcissism and the Confederate dead cannot be connected logically, or even historically; even were the connection an historical fact, they would not stand connected as art, for no one experiences raw history.
I wrestled at the Staples Centre at ‘Monday Night Raw’ when I was 21 years old.
World Play is very ’70s arena rock, very raw and in your face, and that’s what we wanted. We recorded it in a very off-the-cuff manner and didn’t really plan out how we were going to play. My solos are first takes.
I want to be the longest-reigning Raw Women’s Champion. And I’m going to do whatever it takes to make sure that happens.
Greek tragedy was pre-Freudian, so every emotion has to be so raw; there are no psychological undertones.

You can’t hear a word and just hear it as raw sound; it always evokes an associated meaning and emotion in the brain.
I love eulogies. They are the most moving kind of speech because they attempt to pluck meaning from the fog, and on short order, when the emotions are still ragged and raw and susceptible to leaps.
I was a guy who needed to go to class, because I had some raw talent that I thought was identifiable, when I finally made a decision to be an actor. And yet I wanted to learn how to really do the stuff. You know, ‘How do I get to be a serious actor?’
If an NSA, FBI, CIA, DIA, etc analyst has access to query raw SIGINT databases, they can enter and get results for anything they want. Phone number, email, user id, cell phone handset id (IMEI), and so on – it’s all the same.
The ranch was raw land when I bought it and, for better or worse, I have designed every aspect of it from the corrals, the arena, to the barn, to the house.
I wanted to be a part of WWE and part of NXT first, as, if I went to ‘Raw’ or ‘SmackDown’ right away, I would always wonder what NXT would have been like.

The country has to identify and promote raw talent. I have full faith that India will win Olympic gold in athletics sooner than later.

I definitely feel like people in the South are a little more raw. Our whole swag, the way we talk… When I go to the East Coast, people automatically know I’m not from there.
I see myself as a career professional wrestler. The end goal wasn’t always to go to Raw or SmackDown, it was just to create a body of work that I’m proud of.
I’d read Stone Cold’s biography about how he lived on, like, raw potatoes, and I thought, this is all part of it. This is what wrestlers do, and this is what I’m going to do.
In a world where so much happens through computer screens, making a meal by hand, touching the raw materials, feeling your way through a recipe, tasting, adjusting, engaging all the senses, can be a soothing release.
The relationship between press and politician – protected by the Constitution and designed to be happily adversarial – becomes sour, raw and confrontational.
‘Luther’ is raw and brutal like ‘Game Of Thrones,’ but it’s coincidence. If I’m drawn to anything, it would be the writing. Choosing a project is an organic process where I’m taken in by the character and storyline, not the genre, whether fantasy or gritty and raw.
I’m a huge fan of Tracey Emin. She’s so raw and vulnerable; she’s never formed the protective carapace that I formed very early on.
I would never have written ‘Trainspotting’ if it hadn’t been for this album, ‘Raw Power,’ and ‘Metallic K.O.’
It always amazes me when I see young people with raw talent and passion.
I’ve always worked with my partner, my husband, Cameron, since ‘Raw Like Sushi,’ and in a way, I feel very free with what I do, but he also has an amazing insight in having intuitions that tend to be right a lot of the time, about where we should go next.
That’s the thing I like about my sound. It’s real raw and very unsafe compared to a solid state kind of sound.
That’s always the most productive research – research into tone, into voice. Facts are nice, too, but facts are more raw material than creative inspiration.
In Japanese, sushi does not mean raw fish. It means seasoned rice.
A handful of men, inured to war, proceed to certain victory, while on the contrary, numerous armies of raw and undisciplined troops are but multitudes of men dragged to the slaughter.
When it comes to the live events, you get to see great Diva matches you don’t see on ‘Monday Night Raw.’
