You've always got to remember, rock and roll's never been about giving up. For me, for a lot of kids, it was a totally positive force... not optimistic all the time, but positive. It was never--never--a bout surrender.

I was the only person I'd ever met who had a record contract. None of the E Street Band, as far as I know, had been on an airplane until Columbia sent us to Los Angeles.

I took a month long vacation in the stratosphere, and you know it's very hard to hold your breath.

I wouldn't be windmilling a Fender Telecaster if it weren't for Pete Townshend.

Anyone who's grown up or lived on the Jersey Shore knows the place is unique.
