Levon Helm

If you pour some music on whatever's wrong, it'll sure help out.

With horns and a full rhythm section, the drums always looked like the best seat in the house.

We're all dealt with the same hand here, so to speak. I feel like I've had it a lot better than most people. I've had the opportunity to travel and play music all my life.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

In the final analysis, it is your decision to make, but it doesn't move as fast as I'd like it to move.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.
