The bigtime for you is just around the corner. They told me that first in 1952 - boy, its been a long corner. If I dont hit the bigtime in the next 25 or 30 years, Im gonna pack in the music business and become a full-time gigolo.

I was a Gordon Lightfoot fan before he ever had a song out. You just knew he was pure talent and he was going to be successful. Gordon has written and recorded some of the greatest music ever.

Wherever there are rock n rollers, well play. Thats what weve been doing for more than 30 years - rock n roll. Its made me everything from an honorary mayor to honorary member of a motorcycle gang.

If you think all men are created equal, you haven't seen Bo Diddley in the shower.

A good band is like a team. You want to have the right balance. It's not always the best people you need, but the right ones for the job.

Rock 'n' roll was two pegs below being a prisoner of war back then.

I dont know whos left to hear us. But if there are people who want the real thing, weve got it. My band rocks, and I plan to keep doing it till nobody shows up to see it anymore.
