If you want to do something, you do it anyway, and handle the obstacles as they come.

If a guy's got it, let him give it. I'm selling music, not prejudice.

It takes the black keys and the white keys both, to make perfect harmony.

Sometimes when you start losing detail, whether it's in music or in life, something as small as failing to be polite, you start to lose substance.

To this day, I don't like people walking on stage not looking good. You have to look good. If you feel special about yourself then you're going to play special.

After you’ve done all the work and prepared as much as you can, what the hell, you might as well go out and have a good time.

One way or the other, if you want to find reasons why you shouldn’t keep on, you’ll find ‘em. The obstacles are all there; there are a million of ‘em.
