Live music is better.
Give a hippie too much money and anything can happen.
Back then people closed their eyes and listened to music. Today there's a lot of images that go with the music. A lot of music is crap and it's all commercial and the images are all trying to sell the record.
There's more to a picture than meets the eye.
I ran into the preacher, said God was on my side, then I ran into the hangman.
Don't think. The worst songs I've ever written happen when I think.
Nothing is perfect in God's perfect plan.
It's easy to get buried in the past when you try to make a good thing last.
Bad news is just an excuse.

Possessions and concessions are not often what they seem, they drag you down and load you down in disguise of security.
Ain't singing for Pepsi, ain't singing for Coke, I don't sing for nobody, makes me look like a joke.
