I play piano, but not well enough to play professionally.

Sometimes a broken dream will make you sad or make you mean. Sometimes things ain't bad as they seem.

Think about the fool who by his virtue can be found in a most unusual situation playing jester to the clown.

Be calm in the face of all common disgraces.

Everything is trust, all the rest is dust.

Of course I knew The Band's Canadian keyboard player, the late Richard Manuel, but I didn't play that night because I was there as a guest with my record executives. People ask, "why didn't you play?" If I had known I was going to be playing then I would have been prepared for it.

My parents got my sister and I to go to church and have piano lessons. We were keen and they could see that.
