I was really too honest a man to be a politician and live.

Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.

A man is great by deeds, not by birth.

I do support artists standing by their beliefs and walking with integrity. We have to find a better way to commercially exploit music while giving artists their proper respect. This cannot be done while taking their contributions for granted or trying to control the scope of their growth and power through threats and fear tactics.

If you really want to judge the character of a man, look not at his great performances. Watch a man do his most common actions.

Be true to thine own self.
