I used to love to sit and listen to the old people talk about yesterday. There's a lot of good information there.

Everything was a song. Every conversation, every personal hurt, every observance of people in stress, happiness and love... if you could feel it, I could feel it. And I could write a song about it.

I love to sit and watch people. I love to sit and listen to people.

I used to love Kurt Cobain, when he was telling people we're a pop band. People would laugh, they thought of it as good old ironic Kurt. But he wasn't being ironic.

The advantage of being eighty years old is that one has had many people to love.

Old people love to give good advice; it compensates them for their inability to set a bad example.
