Even my older brothers' early success 10 years ago didn't change me since there was such an age difference.

Girls are always running through my mind. They don't dare walk.

I definitely have a sexual ego thing. But if I'm suggestive, it's in a nice way. Luckily, no one's ever been hurt...a few girls have passed out, that's all.

I respect the people who buy my records and come to my concerts. It's only fair that I always try to give them the very best that's in me. After all, I need them more than they need me.

I wasn't eating. I wasn't sleeping. All I was doing was cocaine. I stayed awake for about two weeks, locked in my bedroom. I went down from a 142 pounds to 110 pounds.

Before, I was terrified on stage. I only play guitar during the acoustic songs. After a while, you can elicit certain responses from the crowd, like Elvis.

In 1973 we moved to the British Isle of Man, and I put my first band together for one year, named Melody Fair.

Songs don't just come out of the air. They take time, but its good fun, too. Maurice gave me encouragement.

I'll have to get people to write songs for me right now until my own writing comes around.

I grew up in a show business family, so we've always had a great sense of balance, being so close to my parents.

I have been to hell and back. I had a very, very bad nervous breakdown.

Only God can take our failures and turn them into victories.

More than attitude, posture has also been used throughout history to communicate one’s status in society.

He that fears not the future may enjoy the present.

To have a show have lawyers fighting civil rights cases week in and week out, I think it's exactly what we need.

It is not the mere station of life that stamps the value on us, but the manner in which we act our part.

Once I was doing a sponsored walk. In the end I managed to raise so much money, I could afford a taxi.

You either learn from your experiences or go back and do the same thing, and I learned from my experiences.

I don't know if comedy is a male sport. I always wondered that.

If I put down my tweeter machine for a minute, I actually can communicate with people. As an aside, astonishingly, I just started doing Twitter.

I have no anonymity.I've not had a drink in nine and a half years. That's my whole story right there.
