Going on with life, it only gets more and more intense as time goes by - and the challenges only multiply.

Disco music in the '70s was just a call to go wild and party and dance with no thought or conscience or regard for tomorrow.

You can't very well live in a castle while your kin is on the poor side of town and barely have enough food. Some want you to get to the top and rely on you making it for them, too.

If you stick around long enough, people start referring to you as a survivor. Suddenly I found myself on the receiving end of several prestigious awards.

I worshipped Berry Gordy for the creative dreams he had made come true.

There is to some men a great Lechery in Lying, and imposing on the understandings of beleeving people.

Brushes..? Nah. Hit 'em as hard as you can.

The Rolling Stones are violence. Their music penetrates the raw nerve endings of their listeners and finds its way into the groove marked 'release of frustration.'

People have a tendency to think I was part of Warhol's Factory - I never was. I've always been independent.

The surest sign that God is alive in you is joy.

While I was waiting...I ate your lunch.
