FAVORITE QUOTES

"Rock & Roll was one thing, and then they chopped off the Roll and called it Rock, which became a sort of umbrella term for anything with a guitar in it. Like hair bands ... how could we possibly believe that? It's just gotten downright silly, to the point where now it's sort of become like professional wrestling." – Tom Petty

"Rock & roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me—I can't help it." – Elvis Presley

"Do you believe in magic? Believe in the magic of a young girl's soul. Believe in the magic of rock & roll. Believe in the magic that can set you free!" – John Sebastian

"When you go looking for something specific, your chances of finding it are very bad—because of all the things in the world, you’re only looking for one of them. When you go looking for anything at all, your chances of finding it are very good." – Daryl Zero (The Zero Effect)

"The Sixties are gone—dope will never be as cheap, sex never as free, and the rock & roll never as great." – Abbie Hoffman

“Some of the worst mistakes in my life have been haircuts.” – Jim Morrison

"It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble—it's what you know that just ain't so." – Mark Twain

"I have lived with several Zen masters, all of them cats." – Eckhart Tolle
