Every wave is new until it breaks.
Steve Jobs was a digital pioneer, but when he went home, he listened to vinyl.
There's more to a picture than meets the eye.
I'll never be Bob Dylan. He's the master.
Hey, hey, my, my, rock and roll will never die.
I don't look at a knife the way I used to. I'm more aware of what it is. I think twice. This is a key finger. It's in every chord.
The '60s was one of the first times the power of music was used by a generation to bind them together.

A lot of people that buy vinyl today don’t realise that they’re listening to CD masters on vinyl and that’s because the record companies have figured out that people want vinyl, And they're only making CD masters in digital, so all the new products that come out on vinyl are actually CDs on vinyl, which is really nothing but a fashion statement.

I feel like our religion and our faith have been hijacked. What is bothering me the most is the misappropriation of religion and faith, the misuse of God and the house of worship. It's one faith with different people trying to express it in different ways. It's all about being the little guy in the big world.
