Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.

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

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and all time.

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

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

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

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

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

The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.

Once you become predictable, no one's interested anymore.

I think another thing is that we don't really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist's interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music.

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

Each song is a child I nourish and give my love to. But even if you have never written a song, your life is a song. How can it not be?

Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.

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

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

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.

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

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

The absence of limitations is the enemy of art.
