I Never Use That Word, Retire.

The Way I Feel Today, As Long As My Health Is Good And I Can Handle Myself Well And People Still Come To My Concerts, Still Buy My Cds, I'll Keep Playing Until I Feel Like I Can't.

Playing Guitar Is Like Telling The Truth.

I'm No Good With Chords. I'm Horrible With Chords.

I Think Ive Done The Best I Could Have Done. But I Keep Wanting To Play Better, Go Further. There Are So Many Sounds I Still Want To Make, So Many Things I Havent Yet Done. When I Was Younger I Thought Maybe Id Reached That Peak. But Im 86 Now, And If I Make It Through To Next Month, Ill Be 87. And Now I Know It Can Never Be Perfect, It Can Never Be Exactly What It Should Be, So You Got To Keep Going Further, Getting Better.

I Guess You Can Look At Me, And Tell I'm The Old Man. My Name Is Bb King.
