Music is the best way for me to say I love you.

I find many drawbacks of myself. But, each time when I visit Lourdes, I receive a lesson of reconciliation. When you see ill people or invalids around, you realize that it is a sin to complain!

It doesn't matter if you have a desperate heart when you have to sing about joy; it doesn't matter if you're scared to death when the lights go on.

There's the fatigue that you have to forget about, because the red curtain still has to rise.

In the life of a singer, it's not all triumphs and happy memories; there are days you have to go out there when it's the last thing you feel like doing.

I was 4 years old when I sang in public for the very first time.

My songs always speak of love, that's the way I like them.

Behind every dreamer stands an army full of true believers.

Some are meant to make rules, some are meant to break them. Others just follow.

I don't want to just see someone's face; I want to know his shadow, too. —Jude

One doesn't make art for other people, even though I am very concerned with the viewer

Kind words do not cost much. They never blister the tongue or lips. They make other people good-natured. They also produce their own image on men's souls, and a beautiful image it is.

You have to pick the right tool for the point you're trying to make and there is no one solution.

The whole Valentine's thing is fine, but you don't back it up right next to the biggest gift-giving holiday of the year. Unbelievable. And we find it acceptable.

Enjoyment inflames love in some men, and extinguishes it in others: the wind that assists large vessels, upsets small ones.

The silent majority, that's actually an invention of Richard Nixon's.

Remember, it's Ok to get what you want from life.
