When they finally put you in the ground, I'll stand on your grave and tramp the dirt down.

I'm just the mere shadow of my former selfishness. I crave the silhouette of your kiss.

I used to be disgusted; now I try to be amused.

I believe that music is connected by human passions and curiosities rather than by marketing strategies.

I feel like a juggler running out of hands.

I can't say anymore than I love you. Anything else would be a waste of breath.

Don't wear your heart on your sleeve when your remarks are off the cuff.

It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor.

Often, the more money you make the more money you spend; that's why more money doesn't make you rich - assets make you rich.

Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness.

I may think I have inalienable rights to be alive and happy but I don't - life is a blessing.
