The calendar and the mirror - they're bastards.
All I can say is that it's amazing what you can accomplish when you're young and foolish.
Does anyone remember laughter?
You know, people can't fall in love with me just because I'm good at what I do.
What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.
You have nothing. One should never allow themselves to think that they have, one can just touch - to have is to lack appreciation, to touch is to want to touch again.
I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
You can't give up something you really believe in for financial reasons. If you die by the roadside - so be it. But at least you know you've tried. Ten minutes in the music scene was the equal of one hundred years outside of it.
I treat everywhere as being a center from which I can enjoy the surroundings.
Don't be hard on yourself. And take as many chances, risks, as you can.
There's not a lot of towns that I can go to and take family - too many incongruous knocks on doors - "Hello, honey. Have you missed me?"
When I was a kid, the world was such a big place, and I had no idea that I would be afforded these great moments in between doing what I love to do.
My vocal style I haven't tried to copy from anyone. It just developed until it became the girlish whine it is today.
I think we're in a disposable world and 'Stairway to Heaven' is one of the things that hasn't quite been thrown away yet.
