Brian Wilson
People are part of my music. A lot of my songs are the result of emotional experiences, sadness, pain, joy, and exultation in nature and sunshine and so on...like 'California Girls' which was a hymn to youth.
Brian Wilson

You're called a genius by people, and then your whole life you become the part.
Brian Wilson
I'm doing good. I've had a slight nervous breakdown in the '60s. I got through that. And I got through the '70s. And I was in a doctor's program during the '80s and then I met Melinda and we've been together ever since. I've got a happy life.
Brian Wilson
You don't really know what to believe until the Government denies it.

The Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Phil Spector. Those were my idols.
