I don't recognize the right of this committee to ask me these kind of questions.
And furthermore, you can all go fuck yourselves.

Joe Volpe: She's your perfect girl. Young, beautiful and on her way out.
Will Greene: That's not funny, Joe.
Joe: No; it's sad. You're sad. And worse, it's out of whack.
Will: It doesn't feel so out of whack.
Joe: That's because you're looking at her and I'm looking at you.
Will: I should end it.
Joe: Why? You're making a dying girl feel happy and she's making you think. That's not so bad.

[pause].

Just one thing. Treat her nice; I mean it. Treat her nice.
Will: I will.

~ Autumn In New York.

It seems to me that at 19 or 20, a young man is burning to be great at something. I was. You have a vision that's beyond the neighbourhood. You want to make a mark while you're alive. You don't know exactly your future, but you want to be great at it. And greatness is an important word. And you dare not tell anybody how extreme and how burning are your visions, because you don't want anybody to mess with them.

Everything worth doing starts with being scared.

You jump right over anything in the past, and you don't analyse problems.

They say in the darkest night there is a light beyond.

We human beings are tuned such that we crave great melody and great lyrics. And if somebody writes a great song, it's timeless that we as humans are going to feel something for that and there's going to be a real appreciation.

Yes, I like that word. "More" is a prayer to God, isn't it? Gratitude and plea, all in one.

I have the feeling that in a balanced life one should die penniless. The trick is dismantling.

If John Lennon is deported, I'm leaving too...with my musicians..and my marijuana.

In the tradition of great female artists, Karla Bonoff, Bonnie Raitt, Christine McVie, Shawn
Colvin, Sarah McLachlan....now enter Maia Sharp.

So its mix and match. Hold your line when you really feel something your saying is wonderful and you really want to get this point across and prove it to your partner by just throwing it into the tape and letting it speak for itself.

I would start seeing, in just the sense I was saying now, the kind of record it was going to be and what the arrangement demands, and what my vocal part should be in the record. This was all emerging as the song was emerging.

I'm the kind of person who can hear that stuff. If you sing along to the radio and you're not going to sing unison with the melody, but find the harmony, I find that pretty easy to do.

Records became much cruder in the last 20 years. Let's put it that way.

Records have images. There are wet records and dry records. And big records.

Rodgers and Hammerstein didn't mean anything to me. I just wanted to have a hit, I just wanted to be like those people on the radio. It was all of a case of the present tense with no projecting into the future, particularly.

I teach well. I used to really like teaching a lot. I enjoyed it a lot and I was good at it.

Monterey was the Maraschino cherry on top of the Sundae that was the '60s. It was totally unprecedented, and the audience was unprecedented in their joy.

We'd go to the fraternity house. It was a good place to practice. But we really wanted the kids to overhear us. And whoever heard us would go nuts over it.

Paul has more, I think, of a feel for the stage. Whereas I have it more for the notes themselves. I love record making and mixing, arranging, producing. That I love. I love to make beautiful things, but I don't like to perform.

I like working solo and it was a lot of fun joking around with the audience, saying things. I'm only just learning how to do certain things.

When Paul and I were first friends, starting in the sixth grade and seventh grade, we would sing a little together and we would make up radio shows and become disc jockeys on our home wire recorder. And then came rock and roll.

By my 40s, I finally got out of my own way, so I could become a life creator; a life giver.

Never mind the transience of show business and popularity. When we hear Ray Charles, we go, 'That's a great singer.' You don't need a reporter or a writer to tell us. Good is good and it should shine through the years.

New York, you got money on your mind. And my words won't make a dime's worth a difference, so here's to you New York.

After all these years, I'm finally into soccer. The World Cup is on, and my band is an international group - they're all around me, cheering in the hotel bars.
