I don't think I'm that good a singer. I can't think of a song that I've written that I don't like the way somebody else sings it better.
Human rights is something that wasn't hard to be inspired to write about because there have been so many violations of those rights.
The most valuable thing to me seems to be time, and with time, I can be great. I have been... and I will be.
Freedom is just another word: It seems to get truer the older I get.
Every time I turn on the radio, I must be on the wrong song or something. But, to be honest, since I went on the road back in 1970, I didn't listen to radio music because I didn't want to subconsciously steal somebody's stuff.
I used to think that my songs were the best things that I would leave behind me. And I definitely think my kids are now. For starters, they're writing better songs than I was at their age.
