“Some days are diamonds, some days are rocks. Some doors are opened, some roads are blocked. Sundowns are golden, then fade away. And if I never do nothing, I’ll get you back someday.”

Sometimes life, will get you down, break your heart, steal your crown.

Buy me a drink, sing me a song; take me as I come, cause I can’t stay long.

You and I will meet again, When we’re least expecting it, One day in some far off place, I will recognize your face, I won’t say goodbye my friend, For you and I will meet again.

You spend your life dreaming, running ’round in a trance, You hang out forever and still miss the dance, And if you get lucky, you might find someone, To help you get over the pain that will come.

I’m not exactly a guy who makes new friends easily.

Most things I worry about never happen anyway.

When you kill somebody’s little sister with a missile, he’s going to hate you forever. And the next generation will hate you even more.

I always liked the idea of the guitar – because cowboys played the guitar.

It’s very easy to be cynical about the hall of fame. But on the other hand, it’s really a beautiful thing for someone like me. I dedicated my entire life to this music.

I’ve always had a great love for the blues.

What I’ve learned about marriage: You need to have each other’s back; you have to be a kind of team going through life.

I don’t think it’s a good attitude in your life to feel that you have to be rich to have self-esteem.

I don’t believe in censorship, but I do believe that an artist has to take some moral responsibility for what he or she is putting out there.

Honey, don’t walk out, I’m too drunk to follow.

I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings. Coming down is the hardest thing.

Just wonderin’, waitin’, worryin’ about some silly little things, that just don’t add up to nothin’.

Even offering three hundred bowls of food three times a day does not match the spiritual merit gained in one moment of love.

I’m always living in hope that one day she’ll say she just wants me!

The ladle is in the soup pot every day, but it doesn’t know the taste of the soup. You must reflect and meditate.

I could come home from school and just watch it all day. It just interested me.

You should think about your own death 3 times per day at the very least.

So there are many who are people of the day and who busy themselves with daytime deeds.

It is hard, it lasts all day, the lighting is generally fluorescent, and, apparently, drinking at your desk is frowned upon.

It means much to have loved, to have been happy, to have laid my hand on the living Garden, even for a day.
