It's long been a cliche in Washington that if you hang a lamb chop in your window, guests will come.
I know the world is filled with troubles and many injustices. But reality is as beautiful as it is ugly. I think it is just as important to sing about beautiful mornings as it is to talk about slums. I just couldn't write anything without hope in it.
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - the sinners are much more fun.
