You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to run.
Youth is a frame of mind. If you get out there and enjoy it, you can have it at any time of your life.
With all my heart, and all my soul, I will love you till the winds don't blow. Until the oceans turn to stone, my love is yours and yours alone. My love is forever, until forever's gone.
If you want people to know what your message is, just sing it.
You can't make old friends. You either have them or you don't.
Friendships come and go, but families are forever.
I had holes in my jeans well before it was fashionable.
It won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek.
I'm so totally future oriented that, for me, I don't know what the future's about, but I can promise you it's gonna be exciting.
I've always said music should make you laugh, make you cry or make you think.
You gotta know when to hold'em, know when to foldem, know when to walk away, know when to run. You never count your money when you're sittin at the table, there'll be time enuff for countin' when the dealin's done.

If someone asks you to run the 100 yard dash as fast as you can, you'll run the 100 dash as fast as you think you can. But if you put someone along side you who runs a little faster, you are going to run faster - whoa - I better step it up a little bit. I do things even I didn't know I was capable of.
There is a trade off - as you grow older you gain wisdom but you lose spontaneity.
You know, I've always said, I've never felt I was a particularly good singer, but I've always thought I had a great knack for picking hit songs.
I just hope I can spread some of the happiness that's been coming my way.
Daytime friends and night time lovers, hoping that no one else discovers.
I do ballads that say what every man wants to say and that every woman wants to hear, or I do songs about social issues.
You know, I think the greatest gift in the world is a good employee, you know, or people who can do your work for you and do it well the way you'd like to have it done. And I've always been able to surround myself with really good people.
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, with four hungry children and a crop in the field.
