When I started out jumping around with a tennis racket, I never thought I would end up on a list of the best guitar players in the world. It makes me feel proud of the hard work I've put in.

I got married to an amazing woman, had 2 awesome kids and toured with Jeff Beck, I can die a happy man now.

An element I love about the blues is jamming with other musicians.

Touring with Brian May was like a dream come true that happened early in my career. He inspired me with the way he harmonized and layered his guitar sounds.

May was so great to work with, he even took me over to Japan for some dates. It blew me away when he let me play his guitar on stage with him.

I'm still constantly learning and that's what keeps me excited about the guitar.

Whenever I eat a meal, I always leave the last bite on my plate. I don't know why, it's just a thing with me.

like traveling without knowing what country you’re going to

God grant me courage to dare great things.

The will to label will always prevail over what's being labeled, usually at the expense of either truth or understanding

A gifted teacher has an unfailing eye for magical classrooms & loses sleep over anything less than the highest quality.

I have no technical psychological interest; it is drama, speech,and events that interest me.

But I did not find any positive inspiration in my studies until I approached my nineteenth year.

Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite.

To go back is nothing but death; but to go forward is fear of death and life everlasting beyond.

If there wasn't any competition, I'd be very worried, because it would mean we were not doing very well.

I dislike Ted Cruz as much as the next everyone. But that's no reason to be rude to Ted's loving wife and possible hostage.
