"Back in the 1960s, I saw Peter, Paul and Mary. I was at that age, about 14, and I was mesmerized." ― Lucinda Williams Topic(s): Power More From Lucinda Williams "Of course, I’m older now. I’m in a different place in my life than when I wrote the songs for ‘Car Wheels’ or ‘Essence’ or whatever. Different things were going on." "I’m not just a doormat. I’m not just being stepped on all over the place. If you look at the bulk of my material, it’s about trying to find some strength through that." "If you come into success too soon, you’ll burn out and be finished before you know it. If you let the maturation process happen naturally, you’ll be happier with yourself in the end."

It never did and it never will."― Frederick Douglass
