For me nightlife is like everyday life's mirror.

In nightlife you can become a star, while in the daytime you can just be a nobody.

Amsterdam is not Holland. It is a city that attracts people from all over Holland. And lots of international tourists and party people.

A scene can be created when people are coming together. Either to shop or to hang out.

Of course I knew disco and dub from years before but I never heard such a radical new sound like house. It blew my mind!

Sometimes I happen to be the right guy in the right spot at the right moment.

I don't like cliques. I used to go out a lot in London with friends. And London can be very cliquey. I mean if you don't belong to one set you don't go to a particular party.

Dance music is one of the biggest export products in the Dutch economy these days.

If you can make something genuine, then the ground is fertile for introducing something new. And that happened a few times in my life where I could sow the seeds and see something grow out of it.

That's the main thing. People have to feel it's real. If they feel there's something commercial or some fake thing behind it, then the feeling is definitely different.

That has always been my biggest ambition. To bring people together. To achieve a family spirit. Because then, you can actually do anything, because people are open to what they feel is real.

Success is a choice, not an option.

GOOD: is when those values that we rate desirable are pertainingBAD: is when those same values are wanting.

I see myself as the best footballer in the world. If you don't believe you are the best, then you will never achieve all that you are capable of.

I wake up at about the same time every day. I sleep well and wake without an alarm clock.

I'm terrible when I have to fill up free time. My days, if I'm not working, I wake up and figure out a way to kill time until it's time to go to sleep.

Any job that posts a price list for your body parts is a bad job.

In my show I announce, 'People say Lady Gaga is a lie, and they are right. I am a lie. And every day I kill to make it true.'

Wise man is a good Sherpa; he takes you to the highest places!

If Claret is the king of natural wines, Burgundy is the queen.

The only way we can give our children the best education in the world and prepare them for the next century is by funding the programs that serve them.
