“I think that we honor ourselves by honoring our past.”

Knowledge talks, wisdom listens.

Music is my religion.

The smiling portrait of you is still hanging on my frowning wall.

Don’t waste your time thinkin’ about bad things.

When I die, I want people to play my music, go wild and freak out and do anything they want to do.

Drifting, On a sea of forgotten teardrops, On a lifeboat, Sailing for Your love

Don’t let your imagination take you by surprise.

Anybody can do anything, it’s up to themselves. All it takes is the right intentions.

Now if I don’t meet you no more in this world, then I’ll, I’ll meet you in the next one, and don’t be late, don’t be late, cause I’m a voodoo chile.

The artist draws the people. The whole idea is for people to dig themselves, just mingle around meeting different other people. That’s cool.

When things get too heavy, just call me helium, the lightest known gas to man.

I’m gonna put a curse on you and all your kids will be born completely naked.

Music doesn’t lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.

Please pass me the peace weed, and take some heed. Throw away all that mixed up speed.

I wouldn’t say that I’m the greatest guitarist ever. I’d say probably that I’m the greatest guitarist sitting in this chair.

May I love you away from the evils of today to the dreams of tomorrow, you know heaven has no sorrow.

It’s important that we acknowledge our history and our mistakes so we don’t repeat them.

For the anointed, traditions are likely to be seen as the dead hand of the past, relics of a less enlightened age, and not as the distilled experience of millions who faced similar human vicissitudes before.

I live for the moment – not the future, not the past.

Sometimes, finding the light means you must past through the deepest darkness.

The 1990’s sure aren’t like the 1980’s.

Today is today, and yesterday is gone. There is no doubt.

The past feels distant, even when it’s near. The future feels assured, even when it isn’t.

I like men who have a future and women who have a past.
