Lawrence of Arabia, British Beatlemania.

I've reached the age where competence is a turn-on.

Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue.

Black and white is how it should be, but shades of grey are the colors I see.

I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - the sinners are much more fun.

My songs are like my kids.

I always wanted to try to be a teacher even before I was in the music business. I liked history, and good teachers made an impact on me.
