Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle for where we're going. There's something ahead worth fighting for.

Without freedom of expression, good taste means nothing.

Live music is better.

I trust people. So I make my music for people not for candidates.

I've seen the needle and the damage done.

I have a lot faith in the younger generation of music lovers. Youth isn't living in the past; if somebody tells them that there's something better than what they have, they're going to check it out. And if they like it, they're going to get it. I'm not worried about the youth. Young people aren't just looking back, they are also looking forward.

I want to live, I want to give, I've been a miner for a heart of gold.
