You can't copy anybody and end with anything. If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling.

If I'm going to sing like someone else, then I don't need to sing at all.

A kiss that is never tasted, is forever and ever wasted.

Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain.

Somebody once said we never know what is enough until we know what's more than enough.

You've got to have something to eat and a little love in your life before you can hold still for any damn body's sermon on how to behave.

Sometimes it's worse to win a fight than to lose.

One day a whole damn song fell into place in my head.

I'm always making a comeback but nobody ever tells me where I've been.
