Plant your love and let it grow.

I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes, and the wonder of it all is you just don't realize how much I love you.

Oh yeah, I mean, it wasn't a very good guitar, most good guitars have got thrust rods in the necks that you can adjust or that'll keep them in shape, you know keep them straight. This one just, well it turned into a bow and arrow after a couple of months.

From the beginning, I knew intuitively that if nothing else, music was safe, and that nobody could tell me anything about it. Music didn't need a middleman, whereas all the other things in school needed some kind of explanation.

Give me a guitar and I'll play; give me a stage and I'll perform; give me an auditorium and I'll fill it.

The blues are what I've turned to, what has given me inspiration and relief in all the trials of my life.

It's very difficult to explain the effect the first blues record I heard had on me, except to say that I recognized it immediately. It was as if I were being reintroduced to something that I already knew, maybe from another, earlier life. For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.
