I just want to be a guy with a guitar.

The music can tell people everything they need to know about being human beings. It's not my information, it's not mine. I didn't make it. I just discovered it.

I resent the fact that a parental warning sticker has to be included on an album as cover art. To me that's censorship.

I sacrificed my anonymity for my father, whereas he sacrificed me for his fame.

But music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that it’s the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears.

Above all do not give yourself airs. Breaking the moment of past habits is the challenge here: In the life of the spirit you are always at the beginning.

Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong, but tonight you're on my mind, so you never know.
