There's still time to change the road you're on...
Don't be hard on yourself. And take as many chances, risks, as you can.
The whole idea of music, from the beginning of time, was for people to be happy
Music means communication to me. I say 'listen you people out there, listen to my music, let's be one.' Music is a friend to me when I am lonely, when I am blue. You can't define music 'cause music is cosmos and it knows no barrier or definition. You have to feel music to dig it.
All I can say is that it's amazing what you can accomplish when you're young and foolish.
I think that passion and love and pain are all bearable, and they go to make love beautiful.
The past is a stepping stone, not a millstone.
I absolutely adore and idolise women. All women. I think they are all amazing. The female musicians I've met have been far more inspiring than the male ones. Women tend to be much more creative and ambitious. I think I may have been a woman in a past life.
I'm not a sad old hippie - I'm a joyous old hippie.
As we wind on down the road, our shadows taller than our souls.
Music is for every single person that walks the planet.
You can't give up something you really believe in for financial reasons. If you die by the roadside - so be it. But at least you know you've tried. Ten minutes in the music scene was the equal of one hundred years outside of it.
(`Stairway to Heaven' is) a nice pleasant, well-meaning naive little song, very English. It's not the definitive Led Zeppelin song. `Kashmir' is.
The essence of my lyrics is the desire for peace and harmony. That's all anyone has ever wanted. How could it become outdated?...We are trying to communicate a fulfilled ideal...I am a reflection of what I sing. Sometimes I have to get serious because the things I've been through are serious...The way I see it, rock n' roll is folk music.
You have nothing. One should never allow themselves to think that they have, one can just touch - to have is to lack appreciation, to touch is to want to touch again.
The music beckons to those who are listening.
I like the idea of being alone. I like the idea of often being alone in all aspects of my life. I like to feel lonely. I like to need things.
Boredom is the beginning of all destruction and everything that is negative.
How can you consider flower power outdated? The essence of my lyrics is the desire for peace and harmony. That's all anyone has ever wanted. How could it become outdated?
My vocal style I haven't tried to copy from anyone. It just developed until it became the girlish whine it is today.
Come into my life, here where nothing matters. Come into my life, roll away the gloom.
It's OK to quote from your past. But I'm more interested in quoting from my present and pointing towards the future.
I’m pleased with how ridiculous I am. I like me. Though I’m not a huge fan. I know when to switch me off.
Dolly Parton's done 'Stairway to Heaven.' Anything's possible.
Who wants to see 3 aging old racists on stage, anyway?
