Music is magic. Music does s**t that money could never do. Music unites nations and stops wars.

If you give up, then you can never win again. Giving up is not an option. You cannot give up on anything.

Competitiveness drives my blood. I'm an athlete at heart and I just love the competition. I can't live without it. It's just a rush.

I never thought that I could still love again until i met you. Will you be just a dream?

Moving forward with success is a greater accomplishment, when we bring others along with us.

The resistance is not something to be avoided, it's something to seek out.
