Love ranges from just fascination to something almost spiritual. In the case with my wife Barbara it just keeps growing all the time.

Love hurts, love scars, love wounds, and mars.

As you stopped to say hello, oh, you wished me well, you couldn't tell that I'd been crying over you.

A candy coloured clown they call the sandman Tiptoes into my room every night Just to sprinkle stardust and whisper Go to sleep, everything is alright

Whether I'm in London, Sydney or Hong Kong, it makes no difference. There is always someone who knows me. I must be one of the most unloneliest people in the world!

ELVIS PRESLEY was bigger than life. His success was documented and laid out for him. He came to the first show I had in Memphis, and it was very nice. He sort of treated me like an equal, because we were both fresh in the business. We got to be great friends and kindred souls.

Before you go to sleep, do not forget to say thanks for everything good that has happened to you in the last 24 hours.

People often ask me how would I like to be remembered and I answer that I would simply like to be remembered.

I saw Elvis live in '54. It was at the Big D Jamboree in Dallas and the first thing, he came out and spit on the stage...it affected me exactly the same way as when I first saw that David Lynch film. There was just no reference point in the culture to compare it to.

Elvis was the firstest with the mostest.

Without the word dream, or the concept dream, and without the word blue and the emotions, I would have been really limited in the things I've written and performed.
