My ultimate vocation in life is to be an irritant.

I'm just the mere shadow of my former selfishness. I crave the silhouette of your kiss.

I used to be disgusted; now I try to be amused.

I believe that music is connected by human passions and curiosities rather than by marketing strategies.

I feel like a juggler running out of hands.

I can't say anymore than I love you. Anything else would be a waste of breath.

Don't wear your heart on your sleeve when your remarks are off the cuff.

The radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools tryin' to anesthetize the way that you feel.

And I don't feel any form of music is beyond me in the sense of that I don't understand it or I don't have some love for some part of it.

Women hear rhythm differently than men.

Maybe I just never learned my harmony part, because what everybody says sounds odd to them sounds perfectly natural to me.

The school depends not on man, or any set of men. God planted it, and we are but gardeners to take care of it.

You learn at your best when you have something you care about and can get pleasure in being engaged in.

If it were easy to resist, it would not be called chocolate cake.

A miracle happened: another day of life.

When you are young you take the kindness people show you as your right.
