When I turned 50, I threw myself a big birthday party, and I looked seriously at what my life has been about. I recommend this to everybody. Ask yourself, "What have I done? How did I do it? Where'd I mess up? Where did I do well?" When I did this assessment of my life, I said to myself, "It was really good." I made a lot of people laugh, made a lot of people cry in a good way, brought a lot of joy to people, picked up a lot of garbage. And in all those years, I saw a lot. I went to foreign lands. I met interesting people. And I got it!

The Internet has changed everything. People will be discovered online. People buy music online. It's a completely different way to get entertainment.

GOD is watching us, from a Distance.

A lot of people have no access to beauty. When I was growing up, my mother had only a few pretty things to look at.

My mother would only let us go to the musicals.

I never know how much of what I say is true.

I tried to charm the pants off Bob Dylan, but everyone will be disappointed to learn that I was unsuccessful. I got close - a couple of fast feels in the front seat of a Cadillac.
