en John Lennon and Paul McCartney 's childhood homes were preserved because they spent a significant part of their lives in them.

en Edgar asked me, 'Do you know anything about John Lennon,' ... I said, 'I know everything about John Lennon.' And he told me, 'If you can come up with a concept, you can come to the meeting.' So I had three days to think of something, and my starting point was, what would I, as a die-hard John Lennon fan, want to see?

en You hear 'old' music all the time on commercials. You see how the Rolling Stones or Paul McCartney do on tour. Yet radio says there's no market for 'oldies.' Something doesn't compute.

en Obviously, Miami is a different way of life than New York. My grittier street songs are definitely influenced by New York. Just driving down the Bronx in my old neighborhood can inspire me every day. You never know what you are going to see or hear. I can't really say there is one thing that most inspires me from New York. But the city as a whole always gives me material to write about.

en [Still, the Supreme Court is another kind of universe.] If there were an ad for the job, it would be, 'Inside work, no heavy lifting,' ... The justices hear only the cases they want to hear, write only what they want to write. It's great.

en [How it ended: When Amy sent her friend Christmas cards in 2001 and 2002 and didn't hear back, she didn't worry. She knew her friend was busy with her children; so was Amy. But when Amy's dad died and the friend only sent a condolence letter to Amy's mother,] I realized it was probably deliberate, ... I'm not going to wrack my brain wondering what offended her. It just slowly dissolved. If she doesn't want to hear from me, I'm not going to bother her.

en At times you can hear voices at night, like mumbling. I would hear like ladies screaming and kids talking like at a distance. I would follow the voice. The closer I would get, it would keep moving. I would walk inside the gin and I'd hear it outside.

en [Asked about a rude joke that Rod Stewart's daughter Kimberly told in the latest issue of Stuff magazine:] What has three legs and lives on a farm? Paul McCartney and his wife, ... Rod Stewart is a long-term friend of Paul's, so I doubt she said it.

en It's tough; John Lennon is a huge icon now ... everybody has their own expectation of how to present the story of John Lennon.

en Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, / And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? / Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: / The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

en I just thought it was phenomenal. It reminded me of what an influence John was—how strong an influence he was not only in popular music but in culture, and how much we miss him.

I'm still learning things when I hear his songs.

en I mumble a lot off-stage, I'm a mumbler. If I'm walking with a friend and I say something, he won't hear me, he'll say 'What?'.
