I know what that tastes like, to be a rock-and-roll star - to have a limousine, to have girls screaming when they see you, girls trying to cut my hair, get a piece of me. But I don't walk around with a concept of myself as a rock-and-roll star, and certainly not as a musician, because I really can't play anything, except primitively.

It was always my belief that rock and roll belonged in the hands of the people, not rock stars.

I loved being a rock and roll star, but it wasn't what I wanted in life.
