|  Everything I've ever done was out of fear of being mediocre. | | A long apprenticeship is the most logical way to success. The only alternative is overnight stardom, but I can't give you a formula for that. | | Years from now, after I'm gone, someone will listen to what I've done and know I was here. They may not know or care who I was, but they'll hear my guitars speaking for me. | | I'll always be poor in my mind. | | Do it again on the next verse, and people think you meant it. | | Once you become predictable, no one's interested anymore. | | You shape your own destiny. | | If you hear something you like, and you're halfway like the public, chances are they'll like it too. |
