My secret dream is to write an epic poem. That's probably the most pretentious thing I've said.

I really trust audiences as having excellent taste, for the most part.

I kind of didn't believe the doctors when they came over and they said you're not going to be able to walk again. I'm sorry to tell you this. I thought who is this guy? I just was so impatient with the whole thing. I knew I was going to walk again. I knew that I was going to do that.

I wanted to stay hooked because it was the first time I've been part of the tradition where forgetting was just fine. You do it, you try, you forget, you fail.

You know, for every dollar a man makes a woman makes 63 cents. Now, fifty years ago that was 62 cents. So, with that kind of luck, it’ll be the year 3,888 before we make a buck.

And there was a beutiful view But nobody could see Cause everybody on the island Was saying Look at me! Look at me.

People are really suffering these days. There's a lot of corporate triumph and a lot of personal despair as they wonder what are they working for.
