One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

Music is the literature of the heart; it commences where speech ends.

If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don't write, because our culture has no use for it.

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.

Comedy is the blues for people who can?t sing.

Poets and heroes are of the same race, the latter do what the former conceive.

Rock and roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me. I can't help it.

Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.

Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.

And, in the end The love you take is equal to the love you make.

Being a celebrity has taught me to hide, but being an actor has opened my soul.

We're not trying to change the world; just music.

Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.

Music can change the world because it can change people.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

And I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinking.

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

Intellectual passion drives out sensuality.

People ask me how I make music. I tell them I just step into it. It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow. Every moment in the river has its song.
