I know how to treat my voice to make it sound as good as it possibly can - which is still not that good.

I happened to be in the right place at the right time.

There are a lot of mindless moments in my tunes.

It's all about where you're going, no matter where you've been.

I try and sit on the fence because as soon as you voice any kind of opinion, people begin to think you're an idiot.

I must work hard to make my singing above reproach; there must be no faults which hard work would take care of.

No one has lived a short life who has performed its duties with unblemished character.

God gives the exact experiences he wants them to have in order to shape the specific destiny he designed for them.
