To be a musician, especially a singer-songwriter - well, you don't do that if you have a thriving social life. You do it because there's an element of alienation in your life.

Music is my living. I enjoy selling my music.

I'm trying to look at my blessings and how amazingly well against all odds things have turned out for me.

I'm glad that I still have the ability to tour in Europe. I do love it.

Whenever I see your smiling face, I have to smile myself, because I love you, yes I do.

It's a real wrenching thing to go from being a private person to being a public person, especially when you're being autobiographical.

I don't know much about God. But if everything does originate with God, then certainly songs do as well.
