Without music, life would be a mistake.

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.

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

Everybody has that point in their life where you hit a crossroads and you've had a bunch of bad days and there's different ways you can deal with it and the way I dealt with it was I just turned completely to music.

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.

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