A Quote by Steve Miller

My strongest message is: 'Never give your songs away. Never sign a contract you can't get out of.' — © Steve Miller
My strongest message is: 'Never give your songs away. Never sign a contract you can't get out of.'
The message that I tell everybody, the one that I sign on all of my autographs, the one that resonates with me is, 'Never give up. Never, ever give up,' There are so many things that I've learned in my life. Anything is possible. There are no limits to what you can accomplish.
When your name is out there in the media, you're thinking like, this can be my last game. Coming from Europe, it's different. You sign a contract and you don't leave until your contract is done.
You sign an agreement; you make a contract, you live up to it. You never get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate. You got a right to say yay or nay.
All of the songs on 'Kiddo' were a part of my soul; they're songs that I could never give away.
A good businessman never makes a contract unless he's sure he can carry it through, yet every fool on earth is perfectly willing to sign a marriage contract without considering whether he can live up to it or not.
When you're down and out, there's no meaner place to live than Hollywood. You can get away with your embezzlements and your lies and your murders, but you can never get away with failing.
There are only two ways for me to leave Chelsea. One way is in June 2010 when I finish my contract and if the club doesn’t give me a new one. It is the end of my contract and I am out. The second way is for Chelsea to sack me. The way of the manager leaving the club by deciding to walk away, no chance! I will never do this to Chelsea supporters.
We never want to go into a tour and play 15 songs and say 'Enjoy.' We have messages: Number 1, follow your dreams. If I can do it, you can do it. Number 2, give your life to something. We say, 'Volunteer and add seven years to your life.' You can have your own personal ministry. The message we have is 'What do you stand for?'
When you get to 16 at Barcelona, it's the age that you sign your main contract. I was about to sign that, but we knew there were a lot of other options because you always get them from other teams at that time. I didn't have the option to come to Arsenal until I was right about to sign with Barcelona.
When you get drafted and sign a large contract, people expect results right away.
The way I see it, when you put the uniform on, in effect you sign a contract. And you don't back out of a contract merely because you've changed your mind. You can still speak up for your principles, you can still argue against the ones you're being made to fight for, but in the end you do the job.
I was one of the rare guys who never wanted to sign a contract.
I'm not in favor of the death penalty. But I'm in favor of locking these people away in maximum security units where they can never get out. They can never escape. They can never be paroled. Lock the bad ones away. But you gotta rethink everybody else.
I'll give you some symptoms of a sign that your faith is deteriorating-whenever you face all of your problems and you trust only your plans to get you out-it is a sign that your faith is deteriorating.
Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never -- in nothing, great or small, large or petty -- never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense.
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, never being in business, never really negotiating, give away for nothing things they shouldn't give away.
