Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.

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

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

It really does take a lot of time to make records, to be in the studio and do all that stuff.

I don't want to impress somebody, I want to move somebody. Say the most with the least.

It's so much more interesting when you're human. I hate making mistakes, but I'm not afraid of 'em.

I would love to hear someone write a song like 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' rather than 'You're hot. I'm hot. We're in a truck.' It's just mind-numbing to me.
