When work is no more than a means to an end, it cannot be of high quality.
When you reach my age, you realize you couldn't have done things very much better or much worse than you did them in the first place.
So plant your own gardens and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
Don't talk unless you can improve the silence.
Being with you and not being with you is the only way I have to measure time.
Doubt is one of the names of intelligence.
I am not sure that I exist, actually. I am all the writers that I have read, all the people that I have met, all the women that I have loved; all the cities I have visited.
I feel like I've survived so much, and been through so much. And sometimes I miss the innocence of those times. Life was different. New York was different. The music business was different. I miss the simplicity of it, the naivete of everyone around me.
I look forward to the end of all this money-making part of the career, to be truthful.
At the gym; I've given up trying to get in really good shape, and re-committed myself to not getting any worse.
The armour of falsehood is subtly wrought out of darkness, and hides a man not only from others, but from his own soul.
