My music wasn't written by Mozart, Beethoven, Bach or Schubert. It's written by God and me. They go "a one and a two and up." We start on the downbeat. Bam! And that's where we got them.

In our advanced technological age, most people deny the possibility of miracles.... Miracles don't happen, we are told, because they contravene the laws of nature and worse, they sound religious! Yet we live and move in a sea of miracle.

When you touch me, good God.

You're like a dull knife, it just ain't cutting.

Tell the politicians and the hustlers: live and let live.

Thank God for the journey.

I did the thing with bonds, which was about 30 million dollars, and didn't get none of the money on them.
