I almost resent being Charley Moviestar. Yeah, I'm grateful. But it takes me away from my kids.

I get paid for what most kids get punished for.

I have all the patience in the world about Sirens. For me it's not a Grateful Dead project, it's a Me project.

A lot of people resent that I've been in someone's life for 50 years. Why shouldn't people have an affection for me and what I've done? Didn't I have to be genuine for them to buy into what I did? There are children who grow up today who will not have that when they're 55 years old. With whom will they have it? Name an example for me.

I have a loyalty that runs in my bloodstream, when I lock into someone or something, you can't get me away from it because I commit that thoroughly. That's in friendship, that's a deal, that's a commitment. Don't give me paper - I can get the same lawyer who drew it up to break it. But if you shake my hand, that's for life.

You can't be faulted for being selfish if you're going to get better because of it.
