I would like to see every single soldier on every single side, just take off your helmet, unbuckle your kit, lay down your rifle, and set down at the side of some shady lane, and say, nope, I aint a gonna kill nobody. Plenty of rich folks wants to fight. Give them the guns.

Let me be known as just the man that told you something you already knew.

Anyone who used more than three chords is just showing off.

A song ain't nothing but a conversation fixed up to where you can talk it over and over without getting tired of it.

I have decided long ago that my songs and ballads would not get the hugs and kisses of the capitalistic experts.

Love is the only medicine I believe in.

Nobody living can ever stop me. As I go walking my freedom highway. Nobody living can make me turn back. This land was made for you and me.
