A hat should be taken off when you greet a lady and left off for the rest of your life. Nothing looks more stupid than a hat. ↗

I was just glad to meet somebody outside of my group of small town friends who was into music. Somebody else who had aspirations to do something more than sing at a record hop. ↗

Four years ago, I promised to end the war in Iraq. We did. I promised to refocus on the terrorists who actually attacked us on 9/11. We have. We've blunted the Taliban's momentum in Afghanistan, and in 2014, our longest war will be over. A new tower rises above the New York skyline, al Qaeda is on the path to defeat, and Osama bin Laden is dead. ↗

I don't think that the war serves U.S. interests. I think Osama bin Laden's interests and the Iranian interests are very much served by it, and it's becoming a huge drain on our resources both material and political. ↗

It was, however, in the interest of Osama bin Laden for us to destroy a secular Arab leader; it was very much in the interest of the Iranians because they wanted revenge against Saddam Hussein for Iraq's invasion in 1980. ↗

I'm not confident with the ladies. I can't just ask someone out in a club. I'd like to say I'm a gentleman. ↗

Of course, the idea of a six months' holiday is enough to make anyone laugh at anything, but I find that besides that I was a good deal harassed and run down, and I am glad to cut off from everything and start fresh. I feel miserably selfish about it all the time. ↗

If it helped you get your music off the ground, I'm glad you done it. ↗

I ran five miles today. Then, finally, I said, 'Here, lady...take your purse.' ↗

You don't know a ladder has splinters until you slide down it. ↗
