For nobody else, gave me thrill-with all your faults, I love you still. It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you.

Fresh air makes me throw up. I can't handle it. I'd rather be around three Denobili cigars blowing in my face all night.

I'm for whatever gets you through the night

Throughout my career, if I have done anything, I have paid attention to every note and every word I sing - if I respect the song. If I cannot project this to a listener, I fail.

I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family - and I don't think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.

I believe that God knows what each of us wants and needs. It's not necessary for us to make it to church on Sunday to reach Him. You can find Him anyplace.

If I had done everything I'm credited with, I'd be speaking to you from a laboratory jar at Harvard.
