It allows you to be the whole band in one, to play rhythm and melody, sing over the top. And as an instrument for solos, you can bend notes, draw emotional content out of tiny movements, vibratos and tonal things which even a piano can't do." 5 - "I can't help other people's frustrations. I don't owe people anything. If people would like to come to my concerts, I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that, too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself." 6 - "I think a guitar solo is how my emotion is most freely released, because verbal articulation isn't my strongest communication strength.

There's no devices, customized or otherwise, that give me my sound." 8 - "When a woman tells you she's had a dream about you, you know what's going on, don't you? It means she likes you. It's her way of telling you that you're on her mind. Really on her mind." 9 - "I had a girlfriend once. All we ever talked about was our relationship. That's what we did instead of having one." 10 - "It's a very tempting thing to try and relive your glory days when you get a little older and you worry that people have forgotten all about you." 11 - "The trick to having a happy life is being good at something." 12 - "When you realize that you have a little germ of an idea that has - I suppose I can only say, has to me - a little taste of magic to it. You have this idea that there are millions, literally, of people listening to it at the same time as you and that little strange telepathy of a feeling that you're sharing something live with all those people."
