Man has done a lot to make himself dangerous and animals get the worst of all of it. But then, man too is an animal.

When I see a dolphin, I know it's just as smart as I am.

Johnny Rotten. He's a big fan of mine. I used to see him out in the audience in England and he'd stand up and holler. He's funny. Smart too, and a nice guy. Don't think he's a jerk because he isn't.

Most of modern rock and roll is a product of guilt.

I'd rather play a tune on a horn, but I've always felt that I didn't want to train myself. Because when you get a train, you've got to have an engine and a caboose. I think it's better to train the caboose. You train yourself, you strain yourself.

An audience can really lift you right up off the stage.

You can tell by the kindness of a dog how a human should be.

I don't think artists are made, I think they're born.

I have no neighbours other than animals and Joshua Trees.

I needed to purge myself of all the attention my parents had given me - I wasn't neglected enough as a child.

I think Shakespeare is really the one. Words as music and music as words. Everything he wrote was good, which is really frightening.

I don't even know what sound is, much less what it's for. It isn't to make money that's for sure. I've never made any.

With my voice and my band, I can do anything.

The wind is a very difficult sound to get. It's always changing.

I would never kill a living thing, although I probably have inadvertently while driving automobiles.

No meaningful oversight of the executive. A culture of corruption.

Before we shot the pilot, I knew what 'Dallas' was, but I actually was too young to remember the details of the show. I didn't have my hands on the DVDs, so I YouTubed everything I could of J.R.

A man on a horse is spiritually as well as physically bigger then a man on foot.

I think the human body is beautiful, and I don't really have a huge problem in dealing with it, but it's the context, the environment and what I feel about it that that makes the difference for me.

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.

The originating sin of America is slavery, for which reparations should be paid and will never be paid; as a result, mini-reparations are paid daily, and the NBA remains, for me, reparations theater.

God wants us to believe Him to be huge, even if we don't know what to believe Him for in a particular situation and circumstance. I can believe God to be God, to come and show Himself mighty and merciful in that situation, even if I don't really know biblically what I'm to ask Him for.

My feet have several thousand meetings scheduled with the dirt on a trail not far from here. Who am I to keep them waiting? Time to run.

Gay marriage is the last bastion of to me as a legal ceremonial sentimental and religious side its one of the last steps. Retaining your job being one of the earlier steps like not getting kicked out of your job because youre gay.
