You can't win 'til you're not afraid to lose

Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear

It's a little hard for me to stand behind the walls of the great mansion and play rock and roll star. I feel the need to give back.

You have to be either naive or power-hungry to get into politics. I wouldn't consider it myself. I am too well-informed.

Passion, not pedigree, will win in the end.

I always think I'm the Tom Cruise of music - a lot of success and fans, but no critics, darling.

If people have to tell you how successful they are, they really aren't that successful.
