Nothing in the past is as important as the future.
-
I could write a dozen different songs with the same three or four chords, but they'd all be entirely different.
-
We're a rock n' roll band. We're more music and rock n' roll than politics.
-
There's only seven chords, so you got to use the same ones over and over. It's all in what you do with them.
-
We were kinda rebels. From the wrong side of the tracks. Down where we were raised, it was a tough town.
-
Our redneck reputation back then was originally just because we had long hair. Back in the '60s and the early '70s, in the South that was kind of a no-no. At all the Army and Navy bases we'd play, we would get into fights with the soldiers over our hair. But I think our music overshadowed everything else.
-
I love being Southern because of the people and the fans we have. People down here are more friendly - really warm people.
-
I'm feeling real good and trying to take care of myself and living healthy. As good as I can feel.
-
Everybody's got a right to their own opinion, you know?
-
Man, I love Limp Bizkit, Johnny Lange, many people.
-
Old-school rock bands, and blues bands, too, are kind of a dying breed.
-
If Marilyn Manson would write a song that says, 'Do your damn homework,' it would make the world a better place, and it wouldn't hurt him at all. And if he doesn't like it, to hell with him. He can come fight us - by the bicycle racks.
-
I sound like an old bullfrog when I sing.
-
The only reason we used the Confederate flag was just because we were from the South, and we were proud of that.
-
If we do not play 'Alabama,' our fans would kill us.
-
Sometimes music isn't the way to talk politics, you know?
-
I think we're a working man's band.
-
Jacksonville back in the 1960s was kind of a redneck town. There were only two or three places where you could play our kind of hard rock - or 'hippie music' as it was called back then. You had to go to Georgia or some place else.
-
As long as the fans keep wanting to hear new records from us every few years, we'll keep making them.
-
I've always heard that the reason you fall is to get back up and keep going. So when that happens, or life throws you bad breaks or curves or deals you the wrong hand, all I've ever known is to keep going.
-
We want to challenge Marilyn Manson and the rap people with the bad lyrics to write some positive songs.
-
The more wild experiences you have, the better songs you can write.
-
Buffalo Springfield had three guitar players, and we thought they were so cool. So we started doing the three-guitar thing, and people started calling us the 'guitar army' and all this stuff.

In Lynyrd Skynyrd, we always got our recognition.
