The power of music just kinda kills all those ills; it cures everything and you’ve got more energy just from the music. And, I’ve never seen it fail. It’s good for ya; real good for ya.

My parents wanted me to be smart and be a scholar, and the best I could do was graduate high school.

Forever Young, by Dylan, is one of my favorite songs.
