Thank God for the journey.
I'm the most sampled and stolen. What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine, too. . . I got a song about that. . . But I'm never gonna release it. Don't want a war with the rappers. If it wasn't good, they wouldn't steal it.

The political world is changing rapidly. What the establishment has learned, what the Democratic establishment, the Republican establishment, the media establishment, is the world is not quite what they thought it was. With the middle class disappearing, with people working longer hours for lower rages, with people worried about the future of their children, what you are seeing is a lot of discontent at the grassroots level all over this country. And that's what's going on right now.
More than ambition, more than ability, it is rules that limit contribution; rules are the lowest common denominator of human behavior. They are a substitute for rational thought.
I admit it: above all things, I fear absurdity.
