I'm never going to retire and say, 'This is it. This is my last show.' I will not go on tour - I promised my wife and son no more than two weeks on the road.

It's been the work that has carried me and I never wanted to rest on my laurels or go back and do what I done before.

The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do, well.

I don't believe in writer's block. Most of writer's block is having too much time on your hands. My mantra is that you can always edit a bad page; you can't edit a blank page.

I was a backstage kid. I was in the wings looking out.

It's a privilege and not a right to own a business.

When I'm a part of someone else's creative process, it's all about facilitating their ideas and hopefully bringing their perspective and making it a part of a song.
