I feel connected to whatever is out there.

I think its so cool that you can pick up the guitar and create something that didn't exist 5 minutes ago. You can write something that no ones ever heard before. You have music at your fingertips.

I was so adamant about proving myself for so long and I've gotten to the point where I don't have to do that as much.

When I'm having a bad day, I pick up my guitar.

I followed my heart and figured that if I tried and failed, at least Id know that I tried.

I was drifting away like a drop in the ocean, and now I realize that nothing has been as beautiful as when I saw heaven's skies.

Something about the way you looked at me made me think for a moment that maybe we were meant to be .

I put myself into character for my songs.

Music has always been in me.

One of my favorite stories is my first kissing scene with Linda Gray.

I know Reverend Jesse Jackson is controversial, and not a popular figure with many, but he hired me in 1984. He gave me my first job in politics.

If there was absolute freedom, people would run over babies and charge admission.

You can't just reprise the news. You have to have journalism that makes a point and you have to be in sync with your audience.

Watching something is nothing like doing it.

The saint is hilarious when he is crushed with difficulties because the thing is so ludicrously impossible to anyone but God.
