Our lives are greatly enriched when we immerse ourselves in literature and spiritual writing, not because we are going to be tested but purely for the sake of enrichment.

Our intention creates our reality.

If you believe it will work out , you'll see opportunities. If you believe it won't you will see obstacles.

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.

Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.

When you squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out, because that's what's inside. When you are squeezed, what comes out is what is inside.

If it excites you, if it makes you feel good, it's God speaking to you.

Happiness will never invite you to the party. Happiness simply comes down to a choice to show up each and every day on the world with passion, purpose, place and meaning.

How to change the world:• spread positivity• bring people up instead of dragging them down• treat others the way you wish to be treated

Control your thoughts to define your life.

Destroy your enemy by making him your friend.

The whole tradition of cinema is dominated, really, by films about good guys versus bad guys, good versus evil. But we have very few films about the nature of evil itself.

Ive done a lot of albums and I kinda know when Im onto something that was inspirational for me to record and create, and this was one of those projects where I really enjoyed making the album.

Like a midget at a urinal I was going to have to stay on my toes.

What a lark! What a plunge!
