Paul Simon
The trick is, as I know it, is to care like hell and not give a damn at the same time.
Paul Simon

Paul Simon
Who's gonna love you when your looks are gone?
Paul Simon
The dialogue between what's going on in the world and what's going on internally seems to be a natural thing - well, it's natural to me, anyway, to have these thoughts.
Paul Simon
The abstract music is just more interesting because it doesn't really have anything to say, but if it is good, it creates thoughts and feelings, and I enjoy that. For me, once the music creates those thoughts and feelings, I begin to write a song about it.
Paul Simon
