I didn't like Los Angeles very much but I like San Francisco.

This kid's excited because he's with Bad Company and I'm excited because I'm with Chuck Berrys' son.

But I find that the keyboard is the complete instrument you know?

That's me. I can be me a bit at home, but I'm kind of like a square peg in a round hole.

When I did it, I was a starving musician in London in a basement flat, but a simple tune with the right singer or the right situation can become very well liked and accepted. I'm only too pleased to say it happened with that one.

The parrot's so funny. He imitates me and I don't even realize he's doing it. I'm walking around the house talking to myself and whistling and the next day he's said something I've said... it's scary you know?

It's funny, when I'm not on the road or doing stuff with Bad Company - or whatever- I've always written songs galore... a lot of stuff people don't even hear.

I'm ready for some rock 'n' roll action.

Since I've got on the Internet, it's opened a whole world of wasted time for me. My wife says she's an Internet widow.

Put me on stage and I'm happy.

I didn't like Los Angeles very much but I like San Francisco.

That's what I find with any good song, you just have to let it happen. Out of about twenty songs you might write, one of any significance. It might be thirty or forty, but I just keep churning them out and churning them out in hope that one of them will stick.

I've got a Range Rover. It's brilliant actually but it's manual.

We just sang real simple songs in a simple way that got to people. We didn't try to tart them up with orchestral arrangements and all the stuff. We were all blues fanatics. We like R+B and blues and simple, gut-feeling music.

Santa Fe is a great place which people don't get there often, but it's like a unique place.

Guitar is great for a certain thing, but a piano is so much more expansive.

I've had Range Rovers for a few years actually.

I have been playing a lot of keyboards, especially in the last five or six years. I suppose it gives you more scope than the guitar, although it does tend to make you write a different way.

I think that as you get older, you mellow out a lot more. Having been through the ups and downs in life, I feel more qualified to play the blues.

I'm not a country picker, really - I like a nice, beefy, raunchy sort of sound.

I've never had a plan - it was just to try and get with the people you like to play with, and try to do the best you can.

One of my big inspirations was Chuck Berry, and his playing was always about the rhythm and the lyrics. So I've always been that way in my playing, really.

Guitar is great for a certain thing but a piano is so much more expansive.

Weimar lasted 14 years, the Third Reich only 12. Yet Weimar is always seen as a prelude to the Third Reich, which appears to have been created by Weimar's failures.

I think most of us sense that it is a responsibility of the humanities to try to help better the conduct of human beings in their lives and manifold professional activities.

The only thing a whirlwind courtship does is blow dust in everyones eyes.

Without consistency there is no moral strength.

Encouragement to others is something everyone can give. Somebody needs what you have to give. It may not be your money; it may be your time. It may be your listening ear. It may be your arms to encourage. It may be your smile to uplift. Who knows?

I don't really lie about anything, I have to be honest. I like to live with the truth.

It had never occurred to me to write a historical novel, but then I found Hadley in the pages of Hemingway's 'A Moveable Feast' and wanted to know more about her - who she was, how she and Ernest met and fell in love, what it was like for her to be married to such a demanding and stormy force of nature.

Go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is.

The way to build your savings is by spending less each month.

Short words are best, and old words when short are best of all.

Let me remind you that nuclear disarmament is not just an ardent desire of the people, as expressed in many resolutions of the United Nations. It is a legal commitment by the five official nuclear states, entered into when they signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty.

I love the power of celebrity because you can give voice to the voiceless.

I actually think that one of the most dangerous phenomena is the bowing to expertise, whether it's in international relations or how to use technologies.

I just try to live my life and do my thing.

Being an actor in Hollywood involves lots of things beyond acting. Charm really helps.

When you are an actor, rejection and disappointment are an occupational hazard.

A strong and enthusiastic niche audience can push a topic into mainstream consciousness with speed and force.

When a woman gives birth to a child, the child needs to be able to digest the mother's milk; but when this child is old enough to begin to eat other foods, there is some switching off of this ability to consume milk.

For me, I think being a conservative means you are focused on all four key principles: strong defense, lower taxes, less spending, and defending traditional American values.

We all have our own journeys to make.

Being single is definitely better than being with the wrong person.

Football sometimes is stressful. Music is more of a kind of laid-back type, chilled-out kind of activity. It kind of keeps me balanced, I guess.

I've carried a gun for 10 years. I've carried them in the locker room, and nobody really knows about it. I know how to handle myself, and I stow it away where nobody really knows about it.

Pablo wanted to be loved and accepted. He wanted to destroy the elite he despised so much, but he also wanted to be the president of Colombia.
