"I'm not a spokesman for a generation. I'm a spokesman for myself."

"Some people tap their feet, some people snap their fingers, and some people sway back and forth. I just sway all over."

"I just want to be myself, and I think that's what people want to see."

"Don't criticize what you don't understand, son. You never walked in that man's shoes."

"I'd never do a song that's a lie."
