There are a lot of Iraqi people we can never pay back for what we've done.

I never was one to go into an office and write. For one thing, I had a job. I was cleaning the ashtrays and setting up the studios at Columbia for a couple of years and working every other week down in the Gulf of Mexico flying helicopters. I didn't really get to just write songs for about five years.

I think that a society lives or dies according to its respect for - for its art.

To me, if you love it enough to devote your life to it, then you're doing the right thing.

The Iraqi people are suffering just as if they were still under Saddam.

I urge the Iraqi leadership for sake of its own people... to seize this opportunity and thereby begin to end the isolation and suffering of the Iraqi people.

Iraqis must fight for their own country.

All Iraqis should live under one roof and for one goal.

We must provide all kinds of freedom, personal and economic, to all Iraqis. I will fight for that.
