I can't say that I'm always writing in my head but I do spend a lot of time in my head writing or coming up with ideas. And what I do usually is write the music and melody and then, you know, maybe the basic idea. But when I feel that I don't have a song or just say, God, please give me another song. And I just am quiet and it happens. ↗

"Old times" never come back and I suppose it's just as well. What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that's better. ↗

I don't believe that human beings can achieve ultimate enlightenment, because humans have flaws. ↗

I find that to be a fool as to worldly wisdom, and to commit my cause to God, not fearing to offend men, who take offence at the simplicity of truth, is the only way to remain unmoved at the sentiments of others. ↗
