I'm in showbusiness. I'm an entertainer.

I talk to people who are musicians, and they go, Oh this is hell. And I go, Are you kidding me? You never put tar paper on a roof, did ya?

When people ask me really stupid questions or get it really wrong, I feel embarrassed for them. I don't really feel angry at them.

My only expenses are probably guitar strings and records.

I don't spend as much time on my hair as people think. I get out of the shower, whack some grease on there and I'm done.

I never set out to write a certain kind of song, I just play my guitar and see if I catch something.

I believe the angels listen, God hears us pray. And I believe in a beautiful day.

I didn't grow up in the typical happy American home, but music was always a safe and wonderful place for me to go.

I keep things pretty simple.

I wear a lot of second hand clothes unless I have a concert and then I wear beaded and sequined second hand clothes. No stylist dresses me although I do have a woman that assists me with the buttons.

Singing is something that I'm always happy to do it and going in the studio I never felt any pressure. I just feel like I get to sing, you know. It's fun.

They all had darkened eyes, eyes that seemed to have a hunger behind them. Borne out of the private convulsions only secret passions can provoke.

The noblest mind the best contentment has

A lot of times, if you watch sign language interpreters, there can be some lag time issues. When that happens, I think you lose the hearing audience.

You know, it shows how old I am. I can remember the good old days when the president picked the Supreme Court justices instead of the other way around.

There's many a slip twixt the blueprints and a new house.

I don’t want to hang on and Cry over something so little, Like a springtime illusion that’ll disappear after I wake up

In all things I would have the island of a man inviolate. Let us sit apart as the gods, talking from peak to peak all round Olympus. No degree of affection need invade this religion.

People have always had a fascination with the supernatural going back to the beginning of time and with vampires in particular. This phenomenon is not new.

Life is filled with seasons and this is a different season.

Nothing is yours. It is to use. It is to share. If you will not share it, you cannot use it.
