"I just take care of myself. I never drink. I've never been involved with drugs. I don't let the business control me. I don't feel the need to be in the public eye. I've never searched for adulation, and I'm not gonna start, at this point in my life, to do so."

(Edwin Starr, all'anagrafe Charles Edwin Hatcher, cantante; Nashville, 21 gennaio 1942 – Beeston, 2 aprile 2003)
