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.

You've either got or you haven't got style, and if you've got it you stand out a mile.

I would like to be remembered as a man who brought an innovation to popular singing.

I play to all people - all colors, all creeds ~ drunk, sober, everybody.

What I do with my life is of my own doing. I live it the best way I can.

If you don't know the guy on the other side of the world, love him anyway because he's just like you. He has the same dreams, the same hopes and fears. It's one world, pal. We're all neighbors.

I firmly believe that nuclear war is absolutely impossible. I don't think anyone in the world wants a nuclear war - not even the Russians.
