It is painful to relive things that have caused emotional crises or whatever and find ways to express that musically.

Every time you pick up your guitar to play, play as if it's the last time.

My driving philosophy about making music is that you can reduce it all down to one note if that note is played with the right kind of sincerity.

Risk is trying to control something you are powerless over.

Music survives everything, and like God, it is always present. It needs no help, and suffers no hindrance.

It's been up to me to inspire me.

One of the most beneficial things I've ever learned is how to keep my mouth shut.

All along this path I tread, my heart betrays my weary head, with nothing but my love to save, from the cradle to the grave.

Music became a healer for me. And I learned to listen with all my being. I found that it could wipe away all fear and confusion.

For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.

There are people these days who can do things on the guitar which are beyond my reach. There's one guy who plays with Queen who can do things I would dream of doing. I sincerely mean that.

Why did God make women so beautiful and man with such a loving heart?

This was the start of a period that blurs as I try to recall it. Incidents seem to cascade and merge. Events become feelings, fellings become events. Head and heart are contrary historians.

All of old. Nothing else ever. Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

Whenever I tour my district and I ask small businesspeople 'what can I do to help?,' they tell me to just get government out of the way and they'll create the jobs and grow on their own.

What all of us long for in our hearts, at Christmastime and always, is to feel bound together in love with the sweet assurance that it can last forever.

The downward spiral of Dumbness in America is about to hit a new low.

I really wanted to work in the American industry because it's the leading industry. It's where film and television started.

If there is no humility, love remains blocked.
