I mean, I've been given a terrific life by the audiences who stuck with me all over the world.

And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night, you took your life as lovers often do. But I could have told you, Vincent, this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.

When people ask me what 'American Pie' means, I tell them it means I don't ever have to work again if I don't want to.

In a sense, 'American Pie' was a very despairing song but it can also be seen as very hopeful.

Starry, starry night, flaming flowers that brightly blaze, swirling clouds in violet haze reflect Vincent's eyes of china blue.

Do you believe in rock 'n roll? Can music save your mortal soul?

Drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry.

A long long time ago, I can still remember how that music use to make me smile.

Each thread of life that you leave, will spin around your deeds and dictate your needs.

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.

My face on every coin engraved, the anarchists are all enslaved. My flag is forever waved, by the grateful people I have saved.

We are the ones we've been waiting for.

Some things stayed secrets even when you told them.

There are no 'ifs' in combat. When you win, you win, When you lose, you lose.

I'm a huge animal lover - I love animals to death. I've got tortoises and three dogs, and I've had a million animals in the past. I just think that we should do all we can to take care of them.

I hate the road so much. I almost go into a cocoon with my own people out there.

When people come together too young, they try to become one person. As you get older, you realize that you don't want to become one person because then you lose the person you are.

I have big nuts. huge nuts. Elephantitis of the balls - that's what I have.

Happiness lies not in happiness but only in the attempt to achieve it.

Honesty is better than any policy.

I'd like to date, but I'm not really in a position to meet girls.
