I mean, it's pretty hard to fight and hate and be angry when you're making music, isn't it?

I got my first guitar at age of 7 and never laid it down. Momma taught me G, C, and D. I was off to the races son!

Smokey and The Bandit was just a lark. All we did was run up and down those Georgia roads wrecking cars and having the time of our life.

I used to watch people like Richard Burton and Mel Gibson and think, 'I could never do that.

Pray for intestinal fortitude, work hard, and keep the faith. Oh, and pray for good luck, you're gonna need it.

You can have music and it will stand alone by itself, but you can't have a movie without it.

Well I thought my pickin' would set them on fire, but nobody wanted to hire a guitar man.
