My tears of love are a waste of time if I turn away

Real talent will get through whatever the obstacles.

My life is so full of surprises, nothing surprises me any more.

When I was 15, I was naive, looked like a grey mouse and felt second choice.

I don't take myself seriously any more. Sometimes I just garden in my knickers and platform shoes.

My parents have a wonderful marriage, for many years. But I can't commit myself for such a long time.

Performing, I can take it or leave it. Horticulture is far more challenging. I'm absolutely fascinated by it.

My father has taught me all the tricks of the boys at an early age, which has made me very careful.

Dad is my best mate and I can tell Mum absolutely anything. I really appreciate Mum and Dad. Why are we so close? Young parents, I think. The rock business keeps their minds young.

When you're together with someone for some time, you will automatically depend on them as if they were a crutch. And then it ends.

I don't mind being laughed at: that's something I really don't mind, and I think that's kept me sane. My ability to laugh at myself and allow others to laugh at me has been my saving grace.

The self-actualization process for a man is a conscious choice of a life goal and the way to achieve it

A bird does not give up flying because it failed on its first attempt.

He wept bitter tears over the death of his enemy. It was his enemy, after all, who knew him best and kept him up at night.

Your purpose is great than your problems.

Artists are the antennae of the race but the bullet-headed many will never learn to trust the great artists.

If you're going to school, you should do what you enjoy.

If you have a lot of fans, you have a powerful soapbox, but you still have to have something to say when you're on that soapbox if you want to make a real difference.

A married philosopher is a comic character.

Little said is soonest mended.
