When it comes to luck, you make your own.
Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king, and a king ain't satisfied until he rules everything.
More than rich, more than famous, more than happy...I wanted to be great.
Success makes life easier. It doesn't make living easier.
It's a fairytale so tragic there's no prince to break the spell. I don't believe in magic, but for you I will
It's a town full of losers And I'm pulling out of here to win.
We've got no fairytale ending, in God's hands our fate is complete. Your heaven's here in my heart, our love's this dust beneath my feet.
There have been a lotta tough guys. There have been pretenders. And there have been contenders. But there is only one king.
Blind faith in your leaders, or in anything, will get you killed.
You ride in a limousine the first time, it's a big thrill but after that it's just a stupid car.
I didn't know if it would be a successful one, or what the stages would be, but I always saw myself as a lifetime musician and songwriter...I was always concerned with writing to my age at a particular moment. That was the way I would keep faith with the audience that supported me as I went along...I'm a synthesist. I'm always making music. And I make a lot of different kinds of music all the time. Some of it gets finished and some of it doesn't...The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with.
The great challenge of adulthood is holding on to your idealism after you lose your innocence.
It's not the time in your life, it's the life in your time.
Had a brother at Khe Sahn fighting off the Viet Cong, they're still there, he's all gone.
