The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.

The absence of limitations is the enemy of art.

Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.

Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes, and dance.

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah, even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish, really bad music.

Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo.

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Music should be something that makes you gotta move, inside or outside

Music can change the world because it can change people.

Music with dinner is an insult, both to the cook and the violinist.

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

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

I accept chaos, I'm not sure whether it accepts me.

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.

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.

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

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

I have a genuine love affair with my audience. When I`m on stage they`re not privileged to see me. It`s a privilege for me to see them.

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

The true art of memory is the art of attention.

What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.
