“No matter the bad things that happened in past time, let’s try to live the best we can now.”

I think Americans should have a policy of love. That should be the foreign policy, love. Export Love.

The solution for mankind is of a spiritual nature. It is not a political or religious solution. It’s the ability to love each other. That’s the only solution I see.

My life is a life of accepting what the universe has offered me. I don’t fight the universe.

Love is more than one thing.

I’ve never read one book about my father.

My father loved all different types of music. He wasn’t a snob. He wasn’t a purist.

Some of my songs I don’t do on tour because they don’t work well live.

If food is labeled, some people might choose to eat stuff that’s genetically modified. They might decide they love it. But give us a choice.

My dream is to live a good life and be loving, be close to God and be a good human being and bring peace to people.

Success to me does not mean money.

There’s a rainbow in the sky, all the time, don’t be blind

Art is always good. It just depends if you like or not.

Children are the world’s future, and we need to take care of them like we would any precious resource.

Free spirits have to soar. True Religion.

Religion has become so many different things. Religion is an economic thing for some people. Religion is a gun.

Air you breathe is bad for your lungs so you’ve got to careful and don’t overdue any bad air. Too much pot, too much anything is not good. Your lung is a piece of flesh, a piece of bone. You can injure it.

You never know what worse luck your bad luck has saved you from.

They’re powerful, those songs. At times they’ve been my only way back, the only door out of the dark, bad places the black dog calls home.

Father asked us what was God’s noblest work. Anna said men, but I said babies. Men are often bad, but babies never are.

I think by the time you’re grown you’re as happy as you’re goin to be. You’ll have good times and bad times, but in the end you’ll be about as happy as you was before. Or as unhappy. I’ve knowed people that just never did get the hang of it.

Things are never as bad as they seem.

Bad language is a stage all children go through, and it dies with time when they learn they’re not attracting attention with it.

Every person I killed I strongly believe that they were bad. When I do go face God there is going to be lots of things I will have to account for but killing any of those people is not one of them.
