You know, people can't fall in love with me just because I'm good at what I do.

(`Stairway to Heaven' is) a nice pleasant, well-meaning naive little song, very English. It's not the definitive Led Zeppelin song. `Kashmir' is.

Soon, I'm going to need help crossing the street.

The way I see it, rock n' roll is folk music.

I treat everywhere as being a center from which I can enjoy the surroundings. And so Austin is very stimulating. I'm familiar with a lot of very charming people who have brought a lot of color to my life and a lot of love.

Possibly the whole creative whirlwind of any musician's life is based on garnering and developing and absorbing more and more experience.

Lately, I'm spending more and more time working with non-rock musicians and leaving the mainstream - almost dissolving into another world, musically.
