I've always felt like every note of a song is of equal value.

When I look back, I don't remember the best of the best. I don't remember arena shows with 20,000 people. I remember funky little bar gigs where nobody shows up. The weirdest of the weird are what you retain.

A lot of people play to impress, but the really gifted ones play to move. That's the greatest point of ever doing this.

I am not struggling. What I do, it is what I do.

I never aspired to be up front. When I was a kid, I didn't ever look in the mirror with a hairbrush going, "Hey, I'm Elvis!"

Whether it is successful or not is not the exercise for me. It is not up to me. It is out of my hands now. I am not going to in two years have hindsight and say I made a big mistake.

I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.
