I used to watch the way he treated so many people with kindness and respect, the way he used to be so grateful to his fans. He used to say, "Shari, when I wait backstage to go on and I hear all that screaming and I know it's for me, well, sometimes I feel as if my head is going to get real big with all that kind of fuss and stuff. Then I think that my dad drove a truck and that but for the grace of God I'd be drivin' one too. You have to have humility, Shari," he would tell me. "You can never forget who put you where you are and how many people would like to change places with you".
What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "I used to watch the way he treated so many people with kindness and respect, the way he used to be so grateful to his fans. He used to say, "Shari, when I wait backstage to go on and I hear all that screaming and I know it's for me, well, sometimes I feel as if my head is going to get real big with all that kind of fuss and stuff. Then I think that my dad drove a truck and that but for the grace of God I'd be drivin' one too. You have to have humility, Shari," he would tell me. "You can never forget who put you where you are and how many people would like to change places with you"." in the context of "Sharon Sheeley, songwriter for Glen Campbell, Ricky Nelson, Brenda Lee and her own former fiancé, Eddie Cochran, with whom she rode in a taxi headed for London, on April 16, 1960 which crashed taking Cochrane's life and seriously injuring Gene Vincent and her, in article published in the June 1959 issue of Photoplay." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
