We are at a crossroads in the music business: with the rise of the internet, the world we live in has changed, and the past is not coming back. But I see the glass as half-full: the internet and social networking are new avenues for the next Bob Dylan to be born on.

Map out your future - but do it in pencil. The road ahead is as long as you make it. Make it worth the trip.

Jon Bon Jovi

Future Your You

There's a vintage which comes with age and experience.

Experience Age Wit

Success is falling nine times and getting up ten.

Time Success Up

Believe in love. Believe in magic. Hell, believe in Santa Clause. Believe in others. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams. If you don't, who will?

Jon Bon Jovi

Love Dreams Yourself

Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you.

Jon Bon Jovi

Change Your You

Nothing is as important as passion. No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate.

Jon Bon Jovi

Life Your You

Don't get too comfortable with who you are at any given time - you may miss the opportunity to become who you want to be.

Jon Bon Jovi

Time You Wit

The only thing I like more than my wife is my money, and I'm not about to lose that to her and her lawyers, that's for damn sure.

Money Wife Thing

I went to Catholic school in and out. I'm what you call a recovering Catholic. I have many major issues with the church.

Jon Bon Jovi

You Wit T

You just stay the course, and do what it is that you do, and grow while you're doing it. Eventually it will either come full circle, or at least you'll go to bed at night happy.

Jon Bon Jovi

You Will While

I like progress but I hate change.

Jon Bon Jovi

Change T Progress

What drew me to politics in the first place was the fact that I wanted to have a place to take a stand and use my voice to express what I believed in. But I've no longer got any political aspirations. I feel that as a politician, fifty per cent of people would hate you before you even left the house.

Jon Bon Jovi

Politics You Would

Don't waste your time away thinkin' 'bout yesterday's blues.

Time Your You

This is the way I look at sex scenes: I have basically been doing them for a living for years. Trying to seduce an audience is the basis of rock 'n roll, and if I may say so, I'm pretty good at it.

Good Yin Years

My health and my family are the core of my being.

Jon Bon Jovi

Health Family T

If you wanted to torture me, you'd tie me down and force me to watch our first five videos.

Jon Bon Jovi

You Watch Wanted

For years, I've had a hankering for the portrait of Benjamin Franklin by Joseph Duplessis. Franklin is credited with so many inventions: the postal system, lightning rods, the constitution. He was a rock star before there was such a thing.

Years Year Wit

I'm a football guy. Baseball, I enjoy it at playoff time.

I went to a radio station on Long Island in 1982, and thank goodness for me, it was so new that there was no receptionist. So the DJ opened up his booth, and took my tape and listened to it and thought it was a hit song.

Jon Bon Jovi

Good Up Took

The Rolling Stones set the bar to where I look to as a band. But I don't envision myself touring in the way they do. My knees won't hold out.

Jon Bon Jovi

Won Where Way

New Jersey shaped who and what I am. Growing up in Jersey gave you all the advantages of New York, but you were in its shadow. Anyone who's come from here will tell you that same story.

Jon Bon Jovi

You're never going to see the fat Elvis in me. People I admired like Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and John Belushi all died at 27. I've got jeans older than that.

Jon Bon Jovi

My background's working class. My parents had to work to make ends meet. We don't come from any sense of privilege.

Jon Bon Jovi

My philanthropy is no relation to anybody else's. None. My philanthropy and what we do at the foundation speaks for itself and has no relation to anyone's.

Jon Bon Jovi

You know these love letters mix with whisky, just don't light a match when you kiss me.

Jon Bon Jovi

Piano playing is a dying art. I love the fact that I can be one guy with one instrument evoking an emotional and musical experience.

Jon Bon Jovi

If people have to tell you how successful they are, they really aren't that successful.

Jon Bon Jovi

We've been gone five years and the best they could come up with was boy bands?

Jon Bon Jovi

Women have always ruled my life, be it my mother, my wife, my assistant, or my daughter, so I don't really fight with them. I relinquished control years ago.

Jon Bon Jovi

Tonight I'll dust myself off, tonight I'll suck my gut in, I'll face the night and I'll pretend I got something to believe in.

Jon Bon Jovi

I'd crawl over broken glass for Elle MacPherson or Cindy Crawford.

Jon Bon Jovi

I don't work well outside the lines; my report card once read, 'doesn't play well with others.'

Jon Bon Jovi

I want to own an NFL franchise. I understand the business of football.

We are at a crossroads in the music business: with the rise of the internet, the world we live in has changed, and the past is not coming back. But I see the glass as half-full: the internet and social networking are new avenues for the next Bob Dylan to be born on.

Jon Bon Jovi

If you were to ask me about a mistake I have made, it's calling my fourth album, 'New Jersey', because for the first time in my life, we were compared to the E Street Band.

Jon Bon Jovi

Guys will take one pair of jeans, five T-shirts and three pair of socks and that'll get you by for 10 weeks.

Jon Bon Jovi

I was just another long-haired teenage kid with visions of grandeur, strumming a tennis racket or a broom in front of his bedroom mirror.

Jon Bon Jovi

I pray every day, several times. It soothes me. I don't ask for anything, except for health.

Jon Bon Jovi

I always think I'm the Tom Cruise of music - a lot of success and fans, but no critics, darling.

Jon Bon Jovi

I'm not a big disco guy.

Jon Bon Jovi

Women rule the world. It's not really worth fighting because they know what they're doing. Ask Napoleon. Ask Adam. Ask Richard Burton or Richie Sambora. Many a man has crumbled.

Jon Bon Jovi

There's not a platinum record hanging in my house anywhere. It doesn't exist here. I'm over it. They're all in the garage, wrapped up in bubblewrap.

Jon Bon Jovi

There are those who advocate, and those who do. I'm not trying to slight my peers, but there is a difference between using a soapbox and actually getting your hands dirty. I've spent not only years and millions of dollars but hours and hours and hours of my time doing what I do, and that's very different from what anyone else is doing.
