“I would never put my songs in a commercial.”

God, it’s so painful when something that’s so close is still so far out of reach.

If you look around at America, that’s one of its biggest problems is you have corporations that can never be pleased at a profit.

I’m not interested in the TV much. I quit watching the news a couple years ago and my outlook on life has gotten a whole lot better.

I love the music. I’m never, ever tired of playing it.

At the end of the day, you’re just phonograph records.

I have never been comfortable being the front man.

In a world that keeps on pushing me around, I’m gonna stand my ground, and I won’t back down.

But not me, baby, I’ve got you to save me.

Where the sky begins, the horizon ends, despite the best intentions.

Any time you’re making a living at what you love to do, you’re blessed.

I never could have dreamed that her heart was so wicked, but I keep coming back because it’s so hard to kick it.

You were the one who made things different, you were the one who took me in. You were the one thing I could count on, above all, you were my friend.

Every verse a diamond, every chorus gold, the sound was my salvation. It was only everything, before money became king.

Even the losers get lucky sometimes. Even the losers keep a little bit of pride. They get lucky sometimes.

You get into your late fifties, people start falling like flies all around you. I don’t take life for granted any more. I’m really glad to be here.

You need eagles wings to get over things that make no sense in this world.

I’m scared to death to fly commercial I have not flown commercial since 9/11.

All day long you see those commercials: ‘Here’s Your Brain, Just Say No’…and the next commercial is: ‘This Bud’s For You.’

Pornography is any act that has no artistic merit and causes sexual thoughts…Sounds like almost every commercial on TV to me.

The whole world loves American movies, blue jeans, jazz and rock and roll. It is probably a better way to get to know our country than by what politicians or airline commercials represent.

I can’t believe a war against drugs when they have anti-drug commercials on TV all day long followed by This Bud is for you.

A belief that no commercial activities must be allowed inside the park, but permitting unrestrained development outside, even though the landscape there may be just as outstanding.

At the same time all this was happening, there was a folk song revival movement goingon, so the commercial music industry was actually changed by the Civil Rights Movement.

Investment banks manage to go bankrupt through their investment-banking activities, commercial banks manage to go bankrupt through their commercial-banking activities.
