It's round the world I've traveled; it's round the world I've roamed; but I've yet to see an outlaw drive a family from its home

I am out to sing songs that will prove to you that this is your world and that if it has hit you pretty hard and knocked you for a dozen loops, no matter what color, what size you are, how you are built, I am out to sing the songs that make you take pride in yourself and in your work. And the songs that I sing are made up for the most part by all sorts of folks just about like you.

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.

It's a folk singer's job to comfort disturbed people and to disturb comfortable people

I better quit my talking 'cause I told you all I know But please remember, pardner, wherever you may go The people are building a peaceful world, and when the job is done, That'll be the biggest thing that man has ever done.

Some men rob you with a six-gun -- others rob you with a fountain pen.
