All my life I have gone out on a limb, but I have turned the limb into a bridge, and there is cool, clear water flowing under.

You can kill that man but not his song, When it's sung the whole world round...

My creativity and my political work are linked. I don't do this work out of guilt or out of responsibility.

Whenever new ideas emerge, songs soon follow, and before long the songs are leading.

A lot of artists say, I'm not political. People are afraid of this word.

When an audience comes to one of my concerts, I hope they'll see themselves, somewhere, in one of the songs.

In less than a century we experienced great movement. The youth movement! The labor movement! The civil rights movement! The peace movement! The solidarity movement! The women's movement! The disability movement! The disarmament movement! The gay rights movement! The environmental movement! Movement! Transformation! Is there any reason to believe we are done?
