I don't think anything can touch the expressive range of the guitar.

All I can do is do what I can do, and do what I know how to do. I do what I love to do, and that's pretty much it.

I know that I'm capable of moving around on the guitar. I can express myself the way I want to and feel good about it. But as far as technical chops, I'm not a learned musician.

There's nothing like a music festival. People are ready to have a good time. I don't think anyone comes to a festival going, 'I'm gonna be a complete bummer today.

Music is soaking up things that I see in other people or things that go on in my life, and I put it out there in the form of a song.

When I was growing up, I would go hang out with older guys at night in blues clubs.

I've been called 'musically schizophrenic,' and some people think that's a cool thing.

Most of my songs start out as being very aggressive and guitar-driven.

When I got my first guitar, I played along with everything I heard that had guitar in it, like the Ramones, Nirvana and Sublime, as well as whatever hip-hop and R&B stuff was on the radio.

I am the type of artist where you can't tell me anything. I have always been that way. I am right. I don't need any input.

I don't believe in competition, ain't nobody else like me around

It's all God's will: you can die in your sleep, and God can spare you in battle.

Ideas and dreams are only valuable after they have been acted on.

The curse of sin is nullify by the blood of Jesus Christ.

God gives strength to the weak.

Worry is the opposite of power.

Writing the next lines and words of your life is something only you can do. We write our own stories.

Increasingly, the world around us looks as if we hated it.

Television studios bet the farm on reality shows, where they didn't need any actors and movie studios had no plans for any quality movies that required the presence of me.

Ask, could my gifts, education, career, or experience be used to spread the gospel where it’s needed most?

It was a great game if you don't care who won. I cared.
