Our accomplishments show what kind of people we are.

The first revolution is when you change your mind

Every once in a while, you live long enough to get the respect that people didn't want to give while you were trying to become a senior citizen.

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.

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.

I am honestly not sure how capable I am of love. And I'm not sure why.

I don't mind being criticized. I enjoy being criticized personally, not by rumor.
