“What I do now is all my dad’s fault, because he bought me a guitar as a boy, for no apparent reason.”

I’m shrewd about money; I invest well and look after it. But it’s in my nature to be generous. I look after people.

Well, there’s not a day goes by when I don’t get up and say thank you to somebody.

I’m very proud of my well-earned wrinkles, so show ’em.

I have a very lively and colourful show. It’s two hours of hits and the music speaks for itself.

I’ve still got a brilliant head of hair, which refuses to lay down.

I think, with suits and clothes, if you keep them long enough, they all come back in fashion. It’s like me. I’ve been around long enough and I’ve come back in fashion.

Fast cars like Porsches and Ferraris – they are things of beauty.

You are my lover, you’re my best friend. You’re in my soul.

You can keep your Streisands.

It has gone past me now, the writing phase.

I suppose I miss the British cynicism and the humor.

I am passionate about football. My support for Celtic FC has got me through some hard times in my life. I still play regularly, too.

My love for you is immeasurable, my respect for you immense. You’re ageless, timeless, lace and fineness, you’re beauty and elegance.

I’ve always looked on myself as one of a band and never sought a solo career.

It behooves a father to be blameless if he expects his child to be.

Only you and you alone can change your situation. Don’t blame it on anything or anyone.

Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.

Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.

The Republicans handing over a crippling economy to the Democrats and immediately blaming them for it will never get old.

If you trade your authenticity for safety, you may experience the following: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, rage, blame, resentment, and inexplicable grief.

It’s very hard for me to find any sort of shame or blame in my life. I’m not made that way.

Sometimes the slow ones blame the active for the delay.
