You know what has made me the happiest I've ever been? Seeing my son and daughter graduate from college. More than wanting them to be educated, I wanted them to be nice people. To see that they have become both is just a wonderful thing.

The way you get to know yourself is by the expression on other people's faces.

I learnt early on that your audience take the songs in the way they want to rather than the way you might want them too.

Schedule? I have no schedule. There is no hurry. I work when I want to.

I try not to take people who haven't really thought out what they're doing too seriously. I try not to let them get in the way of what I feel I need to do.

My songs were always about the tone of voice rather than the words.

Angel dust won't go away. Somefolks who were smoking it were going away.
