• "When you're drowning, you don't say 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream."
• "You don't need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!"
• "Reality leaves a lot to the imagination."
• "Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear"
• "Nothing really affected me until Elvis."
• “I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong.”
• “If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music, then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.”
• Love is the flower you've got to let grow.

• “The basic thing nobody asks is why do people take drugs of any sort? Why do we have these accessories to normal living to live? I mean, is there something wrong with society that's making us so pressurized, that we cannot live without guarding ourselves against it?”
• The more I see the less I know for sure.
• There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
• “Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.”
• “We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first, rock 'n' roll or Christianity.”
• “We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it.”
• “Would those of you in the cheaper seats clap your hands? And the rest of you, if you'll just rattle your jewelry.”
• “You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.”
