I like the edge of danger.

The main goal in my life is to make extraordinary things out of the ordinary.

People need heroes, in music and every aspect of life.

When I sing, I always relive a part of my life.

Will I switch to E-reading? I won't, mainly because I love the look and feel of books - particularly hardbacks. I love them enough to put up with the minor hassles of lugging them around and maneuvering them in my lap and having to set them aside while I eat my cheeseburger.

I tell you, in this country, you don't get much of an education. Throughout high school, through junior college, which is all I went, I didn't know anything about the annihilation of all the Indian nations that were here.

I mean, it's the life lessons that I suppose you learn that nobody gets a free ride and that you do the best you can with the means that you can and try to open yourself to as much knowledge and all that that you can.

A mentor, a 'teacher,' is like an editor. I absolutely value my editor, who is my teacher.
