You walk into the room like a camel and then put your eyes in your pockets and your nose on the ground.

People think that singing and playing is easy. It's not. It's easy to strum along, but if you actually want to really play, where it's important, that's a hard thing and not too many people are good at it.

If you're looking to get silly, you better go back to from where you came. because the cops don't need you and man they expect the same.

I can't see myself singing the same song twice in a row. That's terrible.

I was lingering out on the pavement. There was a missing person inside of myself and I needed to find him . . . I felt done for, an empty burned-out wreck . . . Wherever I am, I'm a '60s troubadour, a folk-rock relic, a wordsmith from bygone days, a fictitious head of state from a place nobody knows.

Mama, put my guns in the ground, I can't shoot them anymore. That long black cloud is coming down.

Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.
