My songs are like cheap Neil Young copies.

Generally, you are held to a sound and that becomes your sound. That gets branded as your sound, and all the copycats start with it because the labels are looking for that sound.

The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.

You take all the things that frighten you, and when you can get them to work for you all of sudden people are calling you a success.

Those two songs condense the two albums. They also show what the audiences wanted. I was desperate to keep the band together and find something that the public would like.

We like the imperfect because it reminds us of ourselves.

My love, growing up on the Prairies, was country music.

I don't think that bands that make it on their first album are as strong as bands that don't: there is nowhere to go but down.

The fact that the internet is so active; people can now speak to me indirectly.

With The Guess Who, it took us fifty-something singles before we had hits.

When I was five I had violin lessons.

& may you shine on in the sky with diamonds & dreams...do it for the suit behind the platform, who only wished he were free.have strength in freedom.

It's dogged as does it.

I have a daily message, 'Stimumail,' which I use to stimulate the mind and heart. I have the opportunity to touch over 60,000 people I have never met. I also use Twitter and Facebook.

Often, even if I'm struggling with a decision or something, if I just go out into the ocean, that answer will come without thinking about it too much.

The cinema occupies an important place in the overall development of art and literature.

I hate it when people quote me on the internet, claiming I said things that I never actually said.

It’s time to burn the beret and bury the blue dress.

I think every good, entertaining movie should have a message. I really believe that, because if you do it without it, the film feels a little bit soulless.

What they want can never work. Their dreams can never even get close to reality. Their hopes can never, ever be realized. It isn't humanly possible for liberalism to succeed.

Music is much more of a multimedia sort of thing than I expected.
