A guy said to me, 'You're so lucky. You have people like Ray Charles, Barbra Streisand and The Beatles doing your songs.' I figured out, though, the harder I work the luckier I get. The secret of anything is to surround yourself with good people if you want a good product.

The biggest fool to hit the big time and all I've got to do is act naturally.

I'm gonna still play some dates, but I'm not gonna do anything near like I did it before.

Satan's gotta get along without me. Since I've broke the chain of sin I know for sure that he can't win.

The last 16 years of my daddys life, he got to work for me, and that made him his own boss and he like that.

I'm in an absolute frenzy towards doing as many things as I can that I want to do today. The rest can wait till tomorrow, next week, if I'm around we'll take a look.
