So far I've been very, very fortunate because it appears that people like to hear the music I like to play. What more fortunate position can a musician be in?

Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.

I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.

I don't deal in technique. I deal in emotions.

I can communicate far better on a guitar than I can through my mouth.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on 'Reelin' In The Years'.

You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure; it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a specific moment is what drives it.

I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.

I believe every guitar player inherently has something unique about their playing. They just have to identify what makes them different and develop it.

I always thought the good thing about the guitar was that they didn't teach it in school.

The greatest satisfaction is not the decoration. It is knowing that I am able to help someone who needs help.

In this ocean of time, life is smaller than a drop of water. To create an impact, create a massive wave with the power of your infinite love.

What wondrous life is this I lead! Ripe apples drop about my head.

Discontent and disorder were signs of energy and hope, not of despair.

Putting isn't golf, greens should be treated almost the same as water hazards: you land on them, then add two strokes to your score.

Accept suffering and achieve atonement through it — that is what you must do.

Leadership is like third grade: it means repeating the significant things.

I never brag, how real i keep it, cause thats the best secret.

Haters are confused admirers who can’t understand why everybody else likes you

All the opportunities you let slip by! The idea, the inspiration just doesn´t come fast enough. Instead of being open, you´re closed up tight. That´s the worst sin of all - the sin of omission.

This is the room where Jezebel frescoed her eyelids with history's tragic glitter
