Future generations, riding on the highways that we built, I hope they have a better understanding.
John Mellencamp
You cannot expect the guy who drove the car into the ditch to navigate it out of the ditch. You have to put a new driver in the seat. I'm not saying the new driver is going to be any better, but we need a new driver. Kerry is the only choice.

We lost our way a long time ago with technology. Just because something is an advancement by going digital - that was a huge (expletive) mistake. It was a way for people to make money, but it sure didn't improve sound or quality of record making. It made it faster, cheaper, but it isn't as durable.
John Mellencamp
This is not a rock opera. This is not Tommy. I can write songs that emote, and that's it.
John Mellencamp
If Woody Guthrie set the bar for American songwriters, Bob Dylan jumped right over it. No one I know will ever come close to possessing the beauty of melody and the use of language that Dylan shares with us, with ease.
John Mellencamp
I would never say John Kerry would be a great president. I will say that George Bush has divided us he has filled this country with hatred.
John Mellencamp
Grandma's on the front porch with a Bible in her hand, sometimes I hear her singing take me to the promised land.
John Mellencamp
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy, someone that knows the meaning of hey, hit the highway.
John Mellencamp
The dust to which this flesh shall return, it is the ancient dreaming dust of God.
John Mellencamp
I enjoy the pleasure of my own company.
