There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

Without music, life would be a mistake.

An attack on the roots of passion means an attack on the roots of life.

A star can never die. It just turns into a smile and melts back into the cosmic music, the dance of life.

If I had my life to live over again, I would have made a rule to read some poetry and listen to some music at least once a week.

My goal in life is to give to the world what I was lucky to receive: the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance.
