John Mayer
When you do an interview with me, you're talking to a cheap imitation of the person that I really am. There's no magic in my words, it's just me talking.
John Mayer
High School is like a spork: it's a crappy spoon and a crappy fork, so in the end it's just plain useless.
John Mayer
I've never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, 'We're full.'
John Mayer
When you're just open but not honest, then you start free-associating garbage.
John Mayer
It's very liberating when you finally realize it's impossible to make everyone like you.
John Mayer

John Mayer
