I'm not the kind of guy to talk about angels: I'm a very pragmatic kind of guy.

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.

My religion is no way of knowing me.

The ones who want to achieve and win championships motivate themselves.

Being comfortable is over-rated.

The idea of having a large family, I definitely had a romantic notion of it.

Godly people are waiting for the Lord; therefore they live, therefore they are saved, therefore they receive what has been promised.

We try many ways to be awake, but our society still keeps us forgetful. Meditation is to help us remember.

I got out of college and I went to get my master's in creative writing at San Francisco State. I was working as an actor at the Actor's Workshop, being abused as a intern.

I try to make the audience forget all their problems -- for an hour and a half or so get them out of themselves, and space, and time, and consciousness.

Long Kiss Goodnight has a huge cult following. They could make another version of that movie right now and make a lot of money.

I don't have the insight with the Longhorns that I do with the two teams that I own, but as a fan and reading the sports pages, I'm bullish about the Longhorns.
