“Crap happens in life. It could happen tonight.”

“We are not special. We are not crap or trash, either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens.”

“It may have happened, it may not have happened but it could have happened.”

“They ask, how could this happen here? Well. How could it not happen here?”

“So little of what could happen does happen.”

“You ever take a crap so big, your pants fit better? Anybody ever do that? You ever…I'm hoping that happens to me later tonight, 'cause these babies don't fit anymore. I'm hoping I'm one big turd away from backing into an old wardrobe.”

“If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write.
What else could I do?
I'm so inspired by you.
That hasn't happened for the longest time.”

“So - whatever happened to you?'
'Life. Life happened.”

“Something is happening in this country tonight. I don’t understand it completely. I don’t think anybody does.”

“I'm delighted to see each of you here tonight in spite of a storm warning. You reveal that you are determined to go on anyhow. Something is happening in Memphis, something is happening in our world.”
