I'm not a guitarist as far as a technician goes, I just pick it up and play it. Technique doesn't come into it.

Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.

I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.

I don't deal in technique. I deal in emotions.

I can communicate far better on a guitar than I can through my mouth.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on 'Reelin' In The Years'.

You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure; it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a specific moment is what drives it.

I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.

I believe every guitar player inherently has something unique about their playing. They just have to identify what makes them different and develop it.

I always thought the good thing about the guitar was that they didn't teach it in school.

The greatest satisfaction is not the decoration. It is knowing that I am able to help someone who needs help.

Or maybe I am justoutside enough, being the footstool observing from the corner, that I have a view of reality.

Need a triumph, his demon whined.I'll get you one. Promise.Sure?What are you, Doubt? Yeah, I'm sure.

You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.

It's very easy for me to thank everyone for the incredible contribution they've made to my life.

I'd love to do another television series. I really love the writing process, and as an actor I really like how much you get to examine in television.

Feeling loved by God means feeling glad not only that He crushed His Son so that I can be forgiven, but that He's crushing everything that takes away from my praising of the glory of His grace.

In life, I'd much rather have people laughing at me than booing me.

I studied philosophy and ended on sociology. For some reason, all the advanced courses in philosophy were offered 4:30 to 6:30, so I could never go because of football, so I had to switch.

Traveling would be quite perfect if only one could go home at night.

Whatever you believe, you become.
