I'm very much a gentleman in what I do.

I think that a man should be caring.

If at first you don't succeed, you get back up and you try ... and you try ... and you try it again ... except ice skating, I hate this crap, I quit!

Gay people are the sweetest, kindest, most artistic, warmest and most thoughtful people in the world. And since the beginning of time all they've ever been is kicked.

Now they have banging guitar and no bass and call it rock, but that's not what I call rock.

I never accepted the idea that I had to be guided by some pattern or blueprint.

I am the innovator. I am the originator. I am the emancipator. I am the architect of rock 'n' roll!
