Art should never be sociological; it has got to be timeless. It's got to be your vision and how you can represent the world you see.

My clothes have a story. They have an identity. They have a character and a purpose. That's why they become classics. Because they keep on telling a story. They are still telling it.

You have a more interesting life if you wear impressive clothes.

The fight is no longer between the classes or between rich and poor but between the idiots and the eco-conscious.

It is better to be foolish wise than wise foolish.

The spirit of divinity lives in you.

God wants us to work (whether at home or on the job), but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong to retire. The Levites (who assisted in Israel’s worship) were required to retire at fifty.

Other people's belief changes you. We all have insecurity, and uncertainty, and to have that glow cast over you by somebody that you respect, makes a gigantic difference.

I don’t even know at what age I started, because it’s always been there. Performing … creating … it’s in my DNA.

I like to organize. I have an opinion. I like to get stuff done.

Treat people the way they are and they will stay that way. Treat people the way they can become and they will become that way.

Singing is easy. The proof is always in the living.
