I'm like a shark, right at the top of the food chain. I take what I want, when I want. I truly am the reflection of perfection.

I didn't go around the world, I went around the world on a private jet. I didn't have a hotel room, we had an entire floor. We were spoiled.

During my sabbatical, I spent two years not listening to my songs at all.

Love, acceptance, friends, two kids that I love. I have to take care of myself for them. I've also been a vegetarian for two years.

Everyday begins like a blank chalkboard, on which each one of us can write the poem of our present and our dreams for the future.

What will happen from now on? It doesn't matter. I can only focus on what's happening to me in this moment.

Life is like a great teacher..... she will repeat the lesson until you learn.

Getting caught masturbating sucks. I got caught masturbating in jail 7 or 8 times, it really sucks.

And when you feel the heat, the world is at your feet.

Children aren't just our future. They're our present.

Buddhism has a very beautiful teaching that says the worst thing you can do to your soul is to tell someone their faith is wrong.

Culture is the constant constraint that controls creativity, commitment, collaboration, and cohesion.

To make a difference is just... I think... the purpose of what life is.

In this life we love who we love. There were some stories in which facts were very nearly irrelevant.

I love round people, I love skinny people. I love people in general; we've got to get past labels and stop being so critical about everything.

That thing about being an icon, the fifth Beatle, I just found it so freaky.

I wish that I was where I am.

Since the dawn of history, mankind has honoured and respected brave and honest people.

Surely a long life must be somewhat tedious, since we are forced to call in so many trifling things to help rid us of our time, which will never return.

When I was growing up, the blues did seem too simple to me. I was just a muso.

Lying about anything is the cruelest thing in the world you could ever do. Be who you are. Don't try to be someone you're not. It never works.
