The injury that we do to a man must be such that we need not fear his vengeance.

Foolish heart, hear me calling. Stop before you start falling. Foolish heart, heed my warning; you've been wrong before. Don't be wrong anymore.

There's always a price for what you want.

You can't embrace your whole life if you're shut down. I found out that I can't just run away and shut down. I'm losing the rest of my life doing that.

We have focused only on the negatives, and not enough on incredible stories of the human spirit and of rebirth and rebuilding. That's equally important as the tragedy.

Poverty's potential for character building is far overrated.

I'm so hard on myself. I play these sketches in my computer for friends and they say 'Gee whiz, the vocal's beautiful.' I hear, 'It needs to be better.'

You can’t embrace your whole life if you’re shut down.

Teaching is the highest art; before the doctor, there was a teacher.

I'm not a big fan of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It's just a personal thing, not an ego thing.

A whole other generation is coming up to me now - anywhere from 8 to 22 years old - wanting me to sign autographs. They think Journey was awesome.

Hope is a gift we give ourselves in our darkest despair.

Love and adventure are life's condiments.

God has blessed me with an amazing family, friends and work colleagues that have been my joy, my support, and my sanity. I don't know what I'd do without them.

They showed each other that it was alright for their hearts to come out and play; that it was alright to feel close to someone; that love didn't always end in heartbreak.

Every thought is an afterthought.

My whole philosophy is to broadcast the way a fan would broadcast.

Most Americans aren't the sort of citizens the Founding Fathers expected; they are contented serfs. Far from being active critics of government, they assume that its might makes it right.

Government does not do ANYthing as well as the private sector does, and that includes educating your children.

Better break your word than do worse in keeping it.
