I found myself very lost after 'The Partridge Family,' and I lost my dad and I lost my manager, and I lived in a bubble, and it took me 15 years to get through that and a lot of psychotherapy, and I'm laughing about it now!
-
I work for me, 18 hours a day. It's my gig. So I don't have time to get a point of view.
-
My mother gave up a good part of her career to look after me.
-
I've really sensed that people have an affection for me.
-
Let me tell you, 10,000 is an intimate room. Believe me. I want to be able to connect to everybody in the room, and you can't with a venue any bigger than that.
-
It wasn't until later when people became aware of my writing that I would hear begrudgingly, 'You know, you really are a pretty good singer, I guess.'
-
If you're not a daydreamer, you haven't got any imagination.
-
I was very wary of repeating my father's behaviour and did everything not to act like he did.
-
It was amazing for me growing up in the musical decade of the '60s. I saw The Beatles on television and went out and bought an electric guitar.
-
It's amazing what happens to your body as you get a little older.
-
I just want to continue to produce good work. I don't want to do junk.
-
All that stuff - 'teen idol' - that wasn't me.
-
It is difficult to be famous and that successful where you can't even walk down the street without people chasing you, and having people build monuments to you and worshiping you - all that stuff - but I never took that to a place where I believed it. I saw it as being temporary and a phase.
-
You know, many people who become famous and enjoy great success when they're young disappear after that. Maybe I've lucked out because I came back and went to work.
-
I had a lot of very religious influences - Christian religious.
-
I don't want to end up being some joke on a bad TV series.
-
I understand the rock star deal having been one and still going out strapping my guitar on and performing. Now, I probably do 30 or 40 dates a year and I get to relive how I felt at 19 when I played in some really bad bands.
-
I've done an enormous amount of bringing light into people's lives, and I'm very proud of that and touching and inspiring people.
-
Learning how to be a good parent was easy in the end because I'd basically had the What Not To Do manual.
-
I want to love. I want to enjoy life.
-
Acting was absolutely my first focus. I graduated high school in L.A., and two weeks afterwards, I moved to New York City, and I got a job in a mail room, and I got an agent, doing what actors do, with head shots and all the rest of it.
-
What happened to me during the last couple of years of 'The Partridge Family' was I became so famous and so isolated and so unhappy that I had to do anything I could to end it.
-
Just getting your name in the papers and having people talk about you is not always a good thing.

My mom used to take me down to the Jersey Shore when I was 7, 8, 9 years old. I can remember being down in that area - Belmar, Seaside Heights, Asbury Park and all those places that I went back and revisited.
