I loved Carl Perkins, Jerry lee Lewis... not only were they personal friends.

I have eighteen titles in the German language. I had a number one song in 1965.

On that show, I did country and some rock, too, whatever record I had out at the time, I'd sing that.

I didn't realize how many true Rockabilly fans there were here in America.

Getting comments like that from even the young people at the shows who probably aren't singers, the girls who just tell me that I'm an inspiration to them, for one reason or another.

It really is, to see that this kind of music is still so popular.

But, we didn't have all the media that we do today.

And it wasn't until '84 when I was first asked to come to Sweden and do an album and concert tour.

It seems like the good things that have happened in my career are things that you don't try to plan and push, and make it happen, it just seems to happen.

If I needed to record, I'd head to the coast or Nashville, one or the other.

I enjoyed listening to it, but I didn't think I could do it.

They're dressing like in the 50's when they come out to the shows, and many of them have vintage cars.

You know, no one steered people's careers in those days, I don't think, like they do today.

None of the other guys in the band really sang, so that's when I brought Roy Clark in.

I learned so much about recording and about singing on records from Ken Nelson.

Right, different generations come along, and discover the music, I think.

I have some of the old videos of my performances on it.

If something pops in my mind and it's easy, I write it.

As I go back and listen, the other girls weren't singing quite like I was.

Well, I didn't really have a plan. I just wanted a hit.

Yeah, they let me do whatever I wanted to.

There wasn't so many ISSUES like there are today. It was a simpler time.

I loved Carl Perkins, Jerry lee Lewis... not only were they personal friends.

So, it's nice to know that you've inspired someone to do their life's work.

You could have a hit in California that no one had heard of in Oklahoma.

I really appreciate people like Rosie coming out and saying I've inspired them.

I'm still learnin'. I pick up something from every performer I watch.

We all respect sincerity in our friends and acquaintances, but Hollywood is willing to pay for it.

Young actors often don't think of the consequences of doing nudity or sex scenes. They want the role so badly that they agree to be exploited, and then end up embarrassing family, friends, and even strangers.

Personally, I'd never seen a graphic novel. I knew they existed because friends of mine like Jonathan Ross collect them and some very literate and intelligent people really rate the graphic novel as a form.

Whether I'm doing music or I'm walking down the street or I'm in a record store buying a record or I walk into a comic store and I'm buying comics or having a drink with my friends, it's the same me.

I'm so happy because today I found my friends - they're in my head.

I didn't tell anybody about my plan because I was convinced my family or friends would stop me. I didn't think much about what would happen afterwards.

I was stuck at home in bed with me and got more and more involved with the Internet. I used it to keep in contact with friends and to make sure I was up to date with everything that was going on in the world.

He who hath many friends hath none.

In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.

I rarely do masks because, if I have any extra time, I'd rather spend it with my friends than on myself.

I don't know the vast majority of you personally, and it may sound kind of corny, but I really feel as if we've become friends through the years. And you've been with me during a lot of good times and some very difficult ones. I can't tell you how grateful I am.

David and Dad didn't get along too well growing up. I mean we all got along, but it was harder on David, because David wasn't going to be the son that Dad wanted. But now they're like best friends.

I just have some restaurants to just go and eat there. Do mean places to watch people? I like to go shopping look for guitars and stuff with my friends. Look at Meyer, great old instruments, talk about pedals and stuff.

With the success of the last three or so years, when a lot of people start treating you differently, there's a danger that you may start to think of yourself differently. You rely on your friends to say, 'Hey, wake up!'

Good books, like good friends, are few and chosen; the more select, the more enjoyable.

It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.

There are some friends you don't meet for twenty years and when you meet them again it's as if no twenty years has happened - you're lucky when that happens. I feel the same about books.

And when we draw lines in the sand with regard to certain basic things that are vital to our interest and to the interest of democracy and our friends around the world, we have to be willing to back that up.

The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.

Character is power; it makes friends, draws patronage and support and opens the way to wealth, honor and happiness.

Theses officers were good friends, so it must have been a terrible argument, because the one who played chess with my father was so angry that he walked over to the dentist's house and got the dentist out of bed and shot him.

But, I think that the reason I responded to this book, sort of paradoxically, is that it starts out like The Big Chill, sort of. Four friends, who are not quite happy with their life, and every year they get together for a week and look for some comfort from each other.
