I am not going to be dictated to by fans, certainly. I am dictated enough to by my record company to last me a million years.

I'm hooked my friend to the boy who makes slaves out of men, and oh believe me, flying high in a friendly sky.

Don't play with something you should cherish for life.

To be an artist is a blessing and a privilege. Artists must never betray their true hearts. Artists must look beneath the surface and show that there is more to this world than what meets the eye.

Negotiating means getting the best of your opponent.

I don't make records for pleasure. I did when I was a younger artist, but I don't today. I record so that I can feed people what they need, what they feel. Hopefully, I record so that I can help someone overcome a bad time

Music, not sex, got me aroused.
