I know that I could make this world peaceful and calm, if I only could get my hands on a hydrogen bomb.

The problem turned out to be that I never was that kind of an artist.

Today I saw a car crush my little dog under it's wheel.

There are some things that we know are just not as pleasant as the lies that we tell ourselves, and in that sense in order to endure existence everyone endures a certain amount of dishonesty in their everyday lives.

And so it's inescapable and people who proclaim scrupulous honesty can only proclaim that if they don't examine closely the things they believe.

If you will, then you will, for nothing can withstand your will. As your faith is, so you are, where your mind is there you are.

Artists should re-emphasize performance and de-emphasize recording. You always make more money if you have a healthy performing life than you will if you have even a moderately healthy recording life. Don't make recording the most important thing you do. Make performing the most important thing you do, and then you can make recordings and sell them at your shows, because record labels aren't going to be around to help you get on the radio stations, and the radio stations probably aren't going to play you anyway.
