All your life, you will be faced with a choice. You can choose love or hate…I choose love.

I wear black because I'm comfortable in it. But then in the summertime when it's hot I'm comfortable in light blue.

However, neither he nor anyone else could have become the star Elvis was. Ain't nobody like Elvis. Never was.

I'm thrilled to death with life.

Why me, Lord? What have I ever done to deserve even one of the blessings I've known? Why me, Lord? What did I ever do that was worth love from you and the kindness you've shown? Lord, help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so. Help me, Jesus. I know what I am. Now that I know that I've needed you so, help me, Jesus. My soul's in your hand.

So I simply don't buy the concept of "Generation X" as the "lost generation." I see too many good kids out there, kids who are ready and willing to do the right thing, just as Jack was. Their distractions are greater, though. There's no more simple life with simple choices for the young.

I was wearing black clothes almost from the beginning. I feel comfortable in black. I felt like black looked good onstage, that it was attractive, so I started wearing it all the time.
