My idea of a good time is creating something and reading a good book.

I'm very proud of being a Bee Gee and am always aware that I'll be identified as a Bee Gee.

I don't take things for granted, because everything feels more fragile. It's made me wonder about mortality and how long you've got somebody in the world. I'm more fearful than I used to be.

If the heart stops for more than two minutes, you have massive brain death. There are only two minutes between our conscious world and zero. That's how fragile our consciousness is.

Music is being treated as one big karaoke machine.

I sometimes wonder if the tragedies my family has suffered are a kind of karmic price for all the fame and fortune the Bee Gees have had.

Music became an obsession, and eventually we felt more comfortable with each other then we did with anyone else. The three of us were like one person.

I love food, I love eating.

I don't like fruit but I'm vegetarian, so eat a lot of veggies.

I find it very, very hard. He was part of the fabric of my life. We were kids together, and teenagers. We spent the whole of our lives with each other because of our music.

We've been in each other's pockets our entire lives.

A beginner with any native common sense can play passable Rummy.

Too often man handles life as he does the bad weather. He whiles away the time as he waits for it to stop.

There are all kinds of silences and each of them means a different thing

A mountain you're plannin' on climbin' ain't the same as the one you ain't. It ain't so pretty.

I'd love to open a private museum in Paris, London, or New York, but I don't have the money. If I were Bill Gates or Paul Allen, the first thing I would do is build a museum.

You are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

I renew my call for the occupier (the United States) to leave our land. The departure of the occupier will mean stability for Iraq, victory for Islam and peace and defeat for terrorism and infidels.

And I do believe that the way to change a society, to uplift people - not just their spirit, but to uplift their society and economic base - is through education.

My children - in many dimensions they're as poorly behaved as many other children, but at least on this dimension I've got my kids brainwashed: You don't use Google, and you don't use an iPod.
