It's so sweet, I feel like my teeth are rotting when I listen to the radio.

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

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

The true art of memory is the art of attention.

Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.

The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

The only escape from the miseries of life are music and cats...

I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

I'm very happy to hear that my work inspires writers and painters. It's the most beautiful compliment, the greatest reward. Art should always be an exchange.

Music can change the world because it can change people.

Singers come and go, but if you're a good actor, you can last a long time

I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to.

Play it fuckin' loud!

Every actor in his heart believes everything bad that's printed about him.

The spoken form is in fact a very restrained representation of what is possible in the musical language.

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

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.

Artistic talent is a gift from God and whoever discovers it in himself has a certain obligation: to know that he cannot waste this talent, but must develop it.

I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
