Billy Preston quotes:

The first time I met Ray, I was going to school around the corner from his house. One day, he was playing the piano. I eased up on the porch to listen to him.

I do believe that God has his hands on me and that he has work for me to do.

I had been inspired by an organ player named Earl Grant, who played organ and piano together. My mom took me to see him. So I went home, put my piano and organ together, too.

I'm playing with Bonnie Raitt. I don't have to sing it. I just have to play it. That's cool.

The Beatles did treat me as a member of the group. And that was a great honor, you know?

It was great fun to be able to work with so many different artists. And I'm paying a tribute to the Beatles. I've just recorded some of their songs.

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'.

If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with

Nothing from nothing leaves nothing.

I would never do anything to hurt anybody, especially if they're helping me. I'm not that kind of person.

I got a story, ain't no moral, I let the bad guy win every now and then.

You are so beautiful to me.
