Nobody loves me but my mother, And she could be jivin' too.

I was glad to see other blues guitarists like Albert King have crossover successes like me. We played in the same places like the Whisky and the Filmore. When Albert made his guitar cry, he could cut you so deep!

My ex-wife was trying to be nice once, so she took me to a concert in Los Angeles. I went with her to Symphony Hall, and the orchestra was playing. When the show started, the spotlight was sharp on this one man (Andres Segovia) and he had sombrero on and his guitar propped up like this and, oh man ... he was a master ! - I really heard it. That one guitar sounded like a whole orchestra to me.

Playing guitar is like telling the truth.

Ladies, friends, and music - without those three, I wouldn't wanna be here

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

I don't think it's meant for man to know everything at once.
