Willa Cather Quotes
[Some] people really expect the passion of love to fill and gratify every need of life, whereas nature only intended that it should meet one of many demands.

The key to longevity? Maybe putting an album out every four years - people don't get bored of you! No, just joking. I think, not taking yourself too seriously. You've got to have a sense of humor. You have to be strong-willed to put up with all the bullshit that goes with the job. You've got to consistently write good songs, and have the right rock-n-roll attitude.
