There’s a heaven on earth that so few ever find, though the map’s in your soul and the road’s in your mind.
Now is the only thing that exists.
It’s the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance, and it’s high time you joined in the dance.
I never going to satisfy everybody, so I decided to satisfy myself.
I choose to express myself.
There’s laws that we must live by, and they’re not the laws of man.
Life isn’t all that sad. I’m a happy person.
The people who come to me are the people who are meant to come to me.
I hate the road so much. I almost go into a cocoon with my own people out there.
I kinda threw the spotlight away from me for a little while.
I love Don Williams records, and old Ralph Stanley and Bill Monroe.
I fell in love with Nashville. I got lots of work.
I don’t really pay enough attention to what other people are doing.
I do what I believe in. I do good work, and the people who appreciate it, fine, and those who don’t, fine, that’s good.
I believe in God, but not in any rational or theological scope.
Getting the best response from people is how I base my success.
I feel it right down in my stomach when I’m in touch with something. I don’t know what it is.
For those two years in college I was constantly singing and writing and playing in coffee houses and stuff.
Be On Your Way is one of the favorite songs I’ve ever written. What a terribly sad song, but what a beautiful melody.
Around the time the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, I was already in a band.
Storybook endings never appear. They’re just ‘someone’s’ way of leading us here.
