When I'm sad, she comes to me with a thousand smiles.

I wish they'd had electric guitars in cotton fields back in the good old days. A whole lot of things would've been straightened out.

Music is religion for me. There'll be music in the hereafter, too.

Music is going to break the way because music is in a spiritual thing of its own. It's like the waves of the ocean. You can't just cut out the perfect wave and take it home with you.

With the power of soul, anything is possible.

With any new civilization... they have to have their own officers and police and governments and all that.

Jesus shouldn't have died so early and then he could have got twice as much across. They killed him and then twisted so many of the best things he said. Human hands started messing it all up and now so much of religion is hogwash.
