More quotes by Billy Joel
There was only really one accident that was kinda bad but it was nothing to do with booze, just bad luck... I was having a hard time a couple of years ago... I'm a good driver, I just had bad luck.
Billy Joel
When I first started I didn't know a lot about the job, so I kinda had to figure it out by wire, ya know? It was hit and miss, I made mistakes, and fortunately I was able to recover from most of 'em. But I promised myself if I ever get to a point where I can help somebody that's trying to learn how to do this, that I would try to do that.
Billy Joel
I consider myself to be an inept pianist, a bad singer, and a merely competent songwriter. What I do, in my opinion, is by no means extraordinary.
Billy Joel
In every heart there is a room, a sanctuary safe and strong, to heal the wounds from lovers past, until a new one comes along... So I would choose to be with you. That's if the choice were mine to make. But you can make decisions too. And you can have this heart to break. And so it goes, and so it goes. And you're the only one who knows.
Billy Joel
Do what's good for you Or you're not good for anybody

Billy Joel
Critics have said I write without spontaneity, in cold blood. I don't. I write in hot blood.
Billy Joel
The graduations hang on the wall, but they never really helped us at all.
Billy Joel

Billy Joel
I could walk away from anyone I ever knew, but I can't walk away from you.
Billy Joel
Call you up in the middle of the night. It's awful hard trying to make love long distance, but I really need stimulation.
Billy Joel
Advice is cheap you can take it from me.
Billy Joel
Someday we'll all be gone, but lullabies go on and on / They never die, that's how you and I will be

What will it take for you to believe in me, the way that I believe in you?
Billy Joel
