Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.

When we go to play, you flip around and flash around and everything, and then they're not gonna see nothin' but what their eyes see. Forget about their ears.

When I die, I want people to play my music, go wild and freak out and do anything they want to do.

Plays are so much more special if they've never ever had a production, but I think you can really work on a play and make it better with each production.

That was always my inclination, to start on a new play before the other one gets done, because at least you'll have something to go back to if that play gets trashed.

You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.

I'd play for half my salary if I could hit in this dump all the time.
