There's so much talk about the Drug Generation and songs about drugs. That's stupid. They aren't songs about drugs; they're about life.

My advice is precisely the advice my mother gave me. If you believe you have talent, the next thing you must have is determination. If you keep working, keep striving, and try always to move forward a little bit with every job you do, you'll eventually make it. And I believe that!

If you really think you're right, you should tell it.
