You measure yourself against yourself and nobody else..

Only the bold get to the top..

When I was younger, things got to me more, but not now..

There's nothing better than now..

I respect religion and will respect any religion..

I don't call myself a writer..

You can tell when you're in a hit..

I loved playing Darla..

Better alone than badly accompanied..

I just keep making things, and whatever happens, happens..

Things ain't like they say they be, but they do!.

I'm actually more confident when I'm tan..

Do not be afraid to be afraid..

If you got the truth, you put it out there, and everybody says, "Oh, my God. That's me." And then they improvise also. They take off, as well..

Politics is cyclical..

No one can be cured of being who they are..

You can get to everywhere from almost anywhere..

Those who love most, see most..

Tell what is yours to tell. Let others tell what is theirs..

To find is the thing..

You never can overwhelm an instrument. You will never get out all that's in an instrument. An instrument will bring you to your limits..
