“It’s hard to say a favorite song of my father’s. I listen to all his stuff; a lot of the old stuff before the ’70s.”

Some of my songs I don’t do on tour because they don’t work well live.

If food is labeled, some people might choose to eat stuff that’s genetically modified. They might decide they love it. But give us a choice.

My dream is to live a good life and be loving, be close to God and be a good human being and bring peace to people.

Success to me does not mean money.

There’s a rainbow in the sky, all the time, don’t be blind

Art is always good. It just depends if you like or not.

Children are the world’s future, and we need to take care of them like we would any precious resource.

Free spirits have to soar. True Religion.

Religion has become so many different things. Religion is an economic thing for some people. Religion is a gun.

We should never forget the native families of this land past and, present whose story sometimes gets lost in modern times.

Children are wonderful people.

My dog & and I enjoy making music together in the studio.

I would look at a dog and when our eyes met, I realized that the dog and all creatures are my family. They’re like you and me.

My father was always not concerned about the wealth I have, but every year he would ask me, how much have you given in charity? And how much taxes have you paid?

Thankfully, in my youth I had the best financial advisor a son could ask for: my dad Walter. When I got that first signing bonus in 1978, Dad took my cheque, announced, ‘This is what we’re going to do,’ and bought an annuity with it.

My look and my character come from my experiences as a child. I wasn’t allowed to have girl toys, and I grew up poor. I also had a rough relationship with my stepdad.

It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived.

We were told that they wished merely to pass through our country. To seek for gold in the far west, Yet before the ashes of the council are cold, the Great Father is building his forts among us. His presence here is an insult to the spirits of our ancestors.

A father carries pictures where his money used to be.

I am a much better father and husband than I ever was a sniper.
