Forgiveness requires a sacrifice of pride. A humbling of the spirit. An increase of selfless love. A time when you allow others' feelings to be more important than your own.

We survived life by adaptation to the changing situation.

I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damn short.

I think understanding your life as a story is a really terrific way of kind of knowing where you are and knowing who you are.

Today we have the economic collapse that the whole planet is suffering, but there is hope, and that's what's going to keep us moving ahead.

I think a whole lot of stuff gets by people - I could name half a dozen groups that do songs that are openly supportive of experimentation with drugs, nobody ever said anything to them.

I think white people like to tell Asian people how they should feel about race because they're too scared to tell black people.

I just do what I'm here for and that's to make that music.

I watched and learned about music as a member of Big Bang. Of course it's important to show my charms as an artist by showing my abilities but that's what our solo activities are for.
