Music is the sound of unspoken thoughts.

Everybody dies. It’s no risk to lose your life. You knew it was lost from the beginning.

I had always been a boy in this place, and many of the trees and rocks and streams had been old men when I knew them. Some had died. All had changed. I knew that. I had changed the most.

The world bein’ so small ain’t always a good thing for those of us who ain’t searchin’ for new and different stuff.

One of the worst things I’ve learned about getting older is that there seems to be more change that you don’t like than there was when you were younger and you can’t do nothin’ about it.

You can be spiritual all by yourself. Everybody has a soul. But to be religious, it seems like you need other people, and then sometimes it becomes more about the people than the soul.

Porches could be cleaned with a broom in a few minutes, but the soul could not be swept. It had to be shaken. And shaking the loess from a soul took a lifetime and more strength than most people had.

It remains for you to save one before saving others, to lead one before leading others.

Reading had always been, through bad, boring, or better times, his best connection to humans.

If all you do is think about what you need, you’re no better than an animal in the woods, and no smarter either. To be human, you’ve got to want. It makes you smarter and stronger.

Devotion to self is necessary. First, place the mask on yourself and breathe deeply. Then help the others. If you don’t save yourself, they will die.

It is better for me to serve a charity as an actor or a voice, rather than at a luncheon being just a celebrity.

Everywhere I've been working, I always had in mind the final destination of the clothes, which is the consumer.

I am the hole on the flute that Gods breath flows through.

Always remember where we come from, how we got here, and Who led us into the warmth of the sunshine.

General, get up dress quick you are a prisoner!

Last time I was recording, I was trying to loop on the computer, but it's really difficult because it's really different from looping on hardware.

As you get older, it's harder to maintain your weight and to fly through the air for those routines. It's also the lifestyle; you train seven to eight hours a day, five to six days a week.

My advice to everybody - never give up and have great resiliency. Don't take the rejection personally, but listen if it’s intelligent and make changes if they’re needed and then move forward.

Be careful about gossiping because loose lips really do sink ships.

Sometimes, I wonder what I'm doing back in Los Angeles, but when you look out there... How can you complain when you see a whale cresting, matter-of-factly, as you make your breakfast?
