I don't like the American media - particularly Fox.

I was just 20 years old when I wrote Broken Arrow.

I was a Reagan backer. It was a shock for some people that I could agree with anything that man would say.

I totally have no other talent and I would be totally out of work if I did anything else.

I think I'm going to be making country records for as long as I can see into the future. It's much more down-home and real.

I live for playing live. All my records are live, since After the Gold Rush, with the exception of Trans and the vocals on Landing on Water.

I just wrote one song at a time. Kinda like an alcoholic. One day at a time.

I just do what I do. I like to make music.

I have so many opinions about everything it just comes out during my music. It's a battle for me. I try not to be preachy. That's a real danger.

I go in and sing the song and arrange it and mix it and that's it. It's no different than playing in clubs.

I feel like I could be likened to an old hound circling on a rug for the last five years.

I don't think there is one president that's come down the line that hasn't done something good somewhere.

I'm not into organized religion. I'm into believing in a higher source of creation, realizing we're all just part of nature.

I don't like to be labeled, to be anything. I've made the mistake before myself of labeling my music, but it's counter-productive.

I didn't really know what I was doing when I started. I just started writing songs. After two songs I just continued to explore it.
