I had my guitar and some talent so that I could make friends with intelligent people and could talk my way out of difficult situations.

Nations are not thugs. They are bodies of intelligent people.

I was just learning to play guitar when Tracy Chapman came out. She wrote these songs, she played them by herself and I so admired her for that.

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.

You have to let it all hang out, let go of the ideas that were more comfortable and embrace some of the sadness in your life.

The sign of an intelligent people is their ability to control their emotions by the application of reason.
