I do the best I know how, the very best I can, And I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, What is said against me won't count; If it brings me out wrong, Ten angels swearing that I was right Would have made no difference.
I am not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father. That was not a blanket commitment that if you go and slander and attack Heidi that I'm going to nonetheless come like a servile puppy dog and say thank you very much for maligning my wife and maligning my father.
When people write lies about you, and you know that they are lies, that means that they don't know the truth, so that's OK with me. If something true came out, I would have to check my circle to see who's talking and possibly make an apology phone call to my parents!
These Republican leaders have not been content with attacks on me, on my wife, or on my sons. No, not content with that, they now include my little dog, Fala. Well, of course, I don't resent attacks... but Fala does resent them.
I know Judge Roy Moore to be not only be a man of character in spite of the tens of millions of dollars that are flowing into Alabama to suggest otherwise.
Your reputation is harmed the most by what you say to defend it.
I have much to say why my reputation should be rescued from the load of false accusation and calumny which has been heaped upon it.
Libel actions, when we look at them in perspective, are an ornament of a civilized society. They have replaced, after all, at least in most cases, a resort to weapons in defense of a reputation.
A lot of people would say "well that's not a bad reputation. you sound like a pussy" and I would say yea. but I am passionate about music and being taken seriously about my music, so if you're going to mess with that, we have a problem.
The biggest thing is to make sure that when something comes out about you that is false that you prove it's not true.
Everybody says not to respond to people on social media, but I'm not about to let my reputation be known as a slow player. I just don't appreciate that.
