Just mentioning

I’m just going to mention these three rules that Lou [Reed] and I had. . . .
The first one is don’t be afraid of anyone.
Imagine your life if you’re not afraid of anyone.
Two, get a really good BS detector and learn how to use it.
Who’s faking and who is not?
Three, be really tender.
And with those three, you’re all set.
