My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue, an everlasting vision of the ever changing view.

The writing of You've Got a Friend was one of the most incredible experiences because it was mostly inspiration. It just came to me almost as we hear it.

It's a very worthy cause. This should happen, and I do believe that tenacity counts. Not going away matters.

I didn't want to be an artist.

I still believe that everyone is beautiful in some way and by seeing the beauty in others we make ourselves more beautiful.

Once the inspiration comes, that directs where the perspiration goes.

When I was younger, I was kind of fearless. I think it takes more courage to do things when you know more. I was completely naive, and I was like, why can't I do anything I want to do? You know, go for it.
