Top 10 Best Quotes
“If it’s true that our species is alone in the universe, then I’d have to say the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.”
“I'll tell you a little secret about the Blues: it's not enough to know which notes to play, you have to know why they need to be played.”

Being Irish isn’t a skill; it’s genetic. You wouldn’t say, “I’m proud to have brown hair,” or “I’m proud to be short and stocky.” So why the fuck should you say you’re proud to be Irish? I’m Irish, but I’m not particularly proud of it. Just glad! Goddamn glad to be Irish!”

“All music is the blues. All of it.”
