I'm a conductor of revivals. The only minister in the whole package. Little Richard, the evangelist.

And I don't get down on nobody else for doing whatever else they do. To each his own.

To me, true rock 'n' roll has a lot of bottom in it.

I got fame and fortune, and I lost my sense of reasoning.

I was washing dishes at the Greyhound bus station at the time and I said, 'Awap bop a lup bop a wop bam boom, take 'em out!'

I think that a man should be caring.

I thank God for making me a man.
