I'd rather be B.B. King. That's the way I started. Let the heavy metal guys play heavy metal, let the others play the other ... I try to do what I do better, not get away from it.

A lot of people believe what other people say.

The way I feel today, as long as my health is good and I can handle myself well and people still come to my concerts, still buy my CDs, I'll keep playing until I feel like I can't.

Playing guitar is like telling the truth.

I gave you seven children, but now you want to give them back.

Notes are expensive... spend them wisely

I can't afford no liquor, all I can buy is beer and wine.
