Do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?

When I was young, I was so interested in baseball that my family was afraid I'd waste my life and be a pitcher. Later they were afraid I'd wastemy life and be a poet. They were right.

Music is the love of my life. It's a total escape from reality. Music transports you to another place, someplace unexpected and meaningful.

I've wanted one thing in my life. I don't want to be that girl that gets that one thing then complains.

It can never be again! Everyone always talks about a good thing coming to an end, as if life was over. But I'll be 40 when this interview comes out. Paul is 38. Elton John, Bob Dylan - we're all relatively young people. The game isn't over yet. Everyone talks in terms of the last record or the last Beatle concert - but, God willing, there are another 40 years of productivity to go.

If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly our whole life would change.
