I don't consider myself to be a major talent, so the only solace I can take is to hope I'm growing.

The Wisdom is old, the Koran is old, the Bible is old. Disagreements? Work 'em out.

We're living in a certain time, and we're aware of it. And that's part of what we're aware of, along with our own personal aches and pains.

Breakdowns come, and breakdowns go.

I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died. If I never loved I never would have cried...I am a rock.

After all those years of automatic success, you don't get nervous any more. It's really necessary to be nervous and be a little bit frightened. It pumps the adrenalin into you and you really get down there and try.

You sit and you let your fingers go to wherever they are going to go. You wait until you start to hear something, and you start to figure out what it is that you're doing. And then you add another piece next to that piece, and wait to see if some kind of pattern or something interesting starts to grow, and then you cultivate it.
