If a man can tell if he's been successful in his life by having great friends, then I have been very successful.

I never felt out of control. It was just the way I lived my life. I was the neighborhood bully.

I had a good career. I've been very fortunate.

Pure, white rock 'n' roll, with no blues influence.

I think Ronald Reagan was the best President of my lifetime.

The bigger the show, the better I'd play. It was what I was waiting for, and I'd never get nervous.

I never liked blues music, and I really didn't like jazz. I liked Chuck Berry.
