So if you see Ten Years After, it's not me anymore. I'm very happy with what I am doing now.

I'd love to change the world, but I don't know what to do

Strangely enough, through all those school years I decided at 13 or 14 I was going to be a musician and so school was just something to get out of the way, a waste of time and not to bother with it.

I began to learn a lot of chords and rhythms. It was a bit boring at the time but came in very handy later on.

I started off playing the clarinet, after I was inspired by listening to my dad's Benny Goodman records.

They have decided to tour under the name of Ten Years After which I don't think is very cool. To be honest, they have had to do that as it's the only way they can get any work.

The chances of a reunion now are less likely. I was thinking of having a 40th anniversary of the band, but now they are really another band, so it's all a bit weird.

Anywhere you go in the world is what you make of it, not what you read in books.

I think a lot of modern day guitarists start off playing like Eddie van Halen, and they don't take the time to learn the basics.

It was by listening to Goodman's band, that I began to notice the guitarist Charlie Christian, who was one of the first musicians to play solos in a big band set-up.

I think I'll continue to work as a solo artist.

The ordinary man is involved in action the hero acts. An immense difference.

For poets that have had my luck, Seldom write when they can kiss.

When you do movies it's you have a 3 month family and then everybody goes away and then joins another family, you know?

I feel like I've won the tournament.

Safety's just danger, out of place.

Washington has always had a pretty healthy amount of self-loathing.

An actor's career relies on a lot of luck. Being in the right place at the right time.

I believe life takes us where we need to be.

Pete Rozelle used television to get the game to the American public by creating the Super Bowl and making it the biggest sporting event in the world.
