He shall be the greatest who can be the most solitary, the most concealed, the most divergent, the man beyond good and evil, the master of his virtues, the superabundant of will; this shall be called greatness: the ability to be as manifold as whole, as vast as full.' And, to ask it again: is greatness - possible today?

I exist in the depths of solitude pondering my true goal. Trying to find peace of mind and still preserve my soul.

I've been called a recluse. There's definitely truth in that. I like to spend time alone.

On stage, I make love to 25,000 different people, then I go home alone.

Some people can't stand being alone. I love solitude and silence. But when I come out of it, I'm a regular talking machine. It's all or nothing for me.

I'm kind of like the Lone Ranger or Batman. I can just go to my mansion and jump out in my uniform and sing on weekends.
