I tell my students, it's not difficult to identify with somebody like yourself, somebody next door who looks like you.

When you begin to do that then literature is really performing its wonders. ↗

I'm not one to run around with different girls. I like someone that makes me feel good and that I can make feel good. ↗

Only a certain number of people go to a store over the period of a year. When a person sees my record on the shelf, it eliminates someone else's record from being sold. It's about continuing to try to find new ways to sell records. ↗

Being a cover artist is not like being a real artist. That's just copying what someone else did. ↗
