“I was blessed. I had a great childhood and great parents that loved music and family. I moved from England when I was almost 18 and been on my own ever since and have been trying to make a living in the music business for the past twelve years.”

I didn’t have a lot to do with the first record.

A lot of people say I’m an overnight success, but it’s an overnight success that’s been twelve years in the making.

I picked and co-wrote the songs that if I was a guy who would be spending my hard-earned money buying an album I would want to hear.

I was so happy and content with in life playing music. Music was always my first job and my day gig was my second job.

I think it has a lot to do with determination. I treat people the way I want to be treated and believe if you work hard you can have the things you want in life.

My lifes a wreck, and I love it.

I feel blessed to have had the accumulation of life experiences that I’ve had, life experience just adds to the depths of a persons richness, as with acting!

When I get back into the city, it doesn’t matter where you plop me down, I have my friends around me and I feel so blessed.

The church persecuted is the church pure, and the church pure is the church powerful.

I believe that Americans by and large have been cursed with blessings, and perhaps before long we’ll be blessed with cursings.

We prefer one room in Rangoon to six in Boston.

We feel that we are highly blessed.

Americans are blessed with great plenty; we are a generous people and we have a moral obligation to assist those who are suffering from poverty, disease, war and famine.

It is not arrogance to appreciate what Allah has blessed you with; arrogance is to ascribe those blessings to yourself.
