Gordon Lightfoot

I know that we're being inexorably taken over by the Americans. Without a doubt. I don't mean invaded or anything like that, just taken over. By degrees.

Be calm in the face of all common disgraces.

All that remains is the faces and the names of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

You just get the vibes of your surroundings and it rubs off on you.

I'm not really a bird person or an Audubon guy who studies them, but as I was around them, they interested me.

To wear the crown of peace you must wear the crown of thorns.

I try to keep it light and positive most of the time, whereas earlier on I didn't always do that.

Turning back the pages of my sweet shattered dream, I wonder if she'll ever do the same; And the thing that I call living is just being satisfied With knowing I've got no one left to blame.

I don't think they should regulate the music field. I don't see how they can regulate the arts.
