I never travel without my Stetson, but the more I wear it the more I realise that no one wears hats any more. When I was a kid everybody wore hats, especially in Texas, but I get off the plane in Dallas now and I'm the only guy with a hat. It's amazing.

I was 3 and a half, and there was an open call for a Coca-Cola commercial. We were living around Dallas, and my mom took me. I think they were calling for 16-year-olds that could ride horses and swing a rope, and for whatever reason, my mom took me up there when I was 3. But I always had a rope, and I was a little cowboy at that age.

Bisogna salvare le ferite. Non lasciarle sole, sperdute nell'idea fissa della medicazione e della guarigione. Bisogna interrogare le ferite e aspettare le risposte. La risposta alla ferita siamo noi. I nostri gesti, le nostre possibilit? accolte o respinte, i tremori e gli assalti rispondono tutti alle ferite. Perdere una ferita significa perdere una segnaletica importante per un viaggio dentro le orme dell'esistenza, un viaggio che ci accomuna e ci distingue, ci fa cantati, cantati dalla vita cruda.
Qualsiasi uomo notevole, chiunque cio? non appartenga a quei 5/6 dell'umanit? dotati tanto miseramente dalla natura, rimarr? dopo i quarant'anni difficilmente esente da una certa traccia di misantropia.
