“Show charity and goodwill to others and it will return to enhance your own life in many wonderful ways.”

I remember being in Hollywood at the age of 16 and marveling at the stars. The idea of being part of it never entered my mind. It was too far-fetched.

I draw on my memories but blended with a lot of fantasy.

We were just killing time, we were young and restless, and needed to unwind. There ain’t nothing that lasts forever, forever.

Caught in the crossfire of a silent scream, where one man’s nightmare is another man’s dream.

To be a celebrity, I couldn’t think of anything more cringe-worthy.

If you love animals, don’t eat them.

I pack every minute I can with something to do.

With few words, one can speak the truth.

A songwriter writes songs all the time, whereas just writing a song can be done by anyone, anytime.

I need to be able to rock out.

Out of the dragon’s claws and into the fire, there’s a moment in every man’s life when he must decide what is wrong and what is right.

There is little sense in attempting to change external conditions, you must first change inner beliefs, then outer conditions will change accordingly.

Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure. When you conquer negative attitudes of doubt and fear you conquer failure.

Music became my focus. At 13, I was jamming with my mates. At 15, I was playing clubs.

Thoughts are things; they have tremendous power. Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure.

I only write music for myself, I don’t try and appeal to anyone else.

The charity that is a trifle to us can be precious to others.

It was while helping others to be free that I gained my own freedom.

Everything that is not given is lost.

You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.

When we donate, we are all on the same team!

A man receiving charity always hates his benefactor- it is a fixed characteristic of human nature.

Overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity. It is an act of justice.

In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.
