I fall in love every day. Not with people but with situations.

Life's short. Anything could happen, and it usually does, so there is no point in sitting around thinking about all the ifs, ands and buts.

I don't think your ability to fight has anything to do with how big you are. It's to do with how much anger is in you.

I'm romantic. I fall in love every day. Not with people but with situations. The other day, I saw a tramp polishing his shoes. That just gripped my heart.

I've always had my own style, I've always been different. I don't like to wear anything that anyone else is wearing because it's very important for me to make a statement.

Life is so much more rewarding if you strive for something, rather than take what's given to you on a plate.

Every bad situation is a blues song waiting to happen.

Life happens. There is no point in being upset or down about things we can't control or change.

I don’t need help because if I can’t help myself I can’t be helped.

Music is the only thing that will give and give and give and not take.

To describe yourself as an entrepreneur or a disrupter is as meaningless as describing yourself as an athlete or a thinker. Really? What sports do you play? What do you think about?

What you do in this world is a matter of no consequence. The question is, what can you make people believe that you have done?

I had opportunities to play with other people and give my self some sort of security, but for some reason I wanted to play solo and just put it out there.

The future isn't just unwritten, it's unsearched.

What I mean is sometimes, for an artist, chronic pain can be a gift.

I rise today to offer a formal and heartfelt apology to all the victims of lynching in our history, and for the failure of the United States Senate to take action when action was most needed.

Today we are shapers of the world of tomorrow.
