“Sometimes we all need to take time and give thanks.”

My concept of successful living is escaping the matrix.

Everyday is another chance to get things right.

I have inner peace. It’s a different person.

Now I may have faith/ to make mountains fall/ But if I lack love/ then I am nothin’ at all.

Don’t be a hard rock when you really are a gem!

See fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. And I just retired from the fantasy part.

We’ve got to protect the music and make sure it never gets exploited.

Once you compromise yourself in one way, you compromise yourself in another way. And you’ve just opened the door to compromise, mediocrity, settling.

Consequence is no coincidence.

When you’re young and everything dramatic is exciting, you start to believe that hype that, in order to be an artist, you have to suffer. I’ve graduated from that school.

I am up there onstage alone with that guitar. I don’t have to consider no one else and whether they are comfortable. I need very little.

You don’t know how much artists go through to make it look so easy. It’s all in the practice.

I find, even though it’s raining, I just go outside. I look outside and I’m just so blessed to see it and to experience it, because for such a long time I was just indoors.

Miscommunication leads to complication.

I am just beginning to be more comfortable with my identity.

A friend once said, and I found to be true,That everyday people, they lie to God too, So what makes you think, that they won’t lie to you.

We’re grown ass men, you don’t need to be falling all over the place.

Solitude is for me a fount of healing which makes my life worth living. Talking is often a torment for me, and I need many days of silence to recover from the futility of words.

The quickest way out of fear is to get outside of yourself and to help someone else in need.

I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.

There’s a difference between a want and a need. Some nights I just want more than me.

Some need a whip and others a pat on the back and others are better off when they are ignored.

The youth need to be enabled to become job generators from job seekers.

Love is all you need.
