I'm actually a pretty decent human being, and when I'm home I'm straight as an arrow.

It's not that I'm Mr. Goody-Two-Shoes now, but I've got my priorities in order.

I am happy to make money. I want to make more money, make more music, eat Big Macs and drink Budweisers.

They believed you can't mix rock, country, and rap, and that crossover is dead. I always knew it would work. And it will always work as long as you're really into it and like what you're doing.

I truly believe that people like myself, who are in a position of entertainers in the limelight, should keep their mouth shut on politics.

If I was president of the good old U.S.A., I'd turn the churches into strip clubs and watch the whole world pray.

Having the critics praise you is like having the hangman say you’ve got a pretty neck

Were all moving, moving, moving. Isnt it nice?

Prayer is the mightiest weapon that God has placed in our hands.

A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart.

Are you nervous about no longer being a big fish in a small pond?

When I passed the age of 50, I learned how to control my emotions.

When I was at Brown. In other words, I'd heard about [H.P. Lovecraft], but I didn't pay that much attention till I happened to go to a meeting about it. And then I got just totally turned on.

Art is not in the ...eye of the beholder. It's in the soul of the artist.
