In the life of a singer, it's not all triumphs and happy memories; there are days you have to go out there when it's the last thing you feel like doing.

Music is the best way for me to say I love you.

I find many drawbacks of myself. But, each time when I visit Lourdes, I receive a lesson of reconciliation. When you see ill people or invalids around, you realize that it is a sin to complain!

It doesn't matter if you have a desperate heart when you have to sing about joy; it doesn't matter if you're scared to death when the lights go on.

There's the fatigue that you have to forget about, because the red curtain still has to rise.

I was 4 years old when I sang in public for the very first time.

My songs always speak of love, that's the way I like them.

All things are subject to decay and when fate summons, monarchs must obey.

Nothing important is learned; it is simply remembered.

Sometimes the best recruits are the ones you don't get.

No pictorial or sculptural combinations of points of human loveliness, do more than approach the living and breathing human beauty as it gladdens our daily path.

I have zero interest in sports of any kind - professional, college or international.

Reminding myself of all that I have to be thankful for really helps ground me and keeps me from tipping over into that negative place.

I worked with a lot of different, amazing people, but I was always like, "Dude, I'm sorry, you're going to have to trust me, we've got to do it this way!"

The Seven Deadly Sins are a litany of victimless crimes, compiled to distract attention from the bloody felonies of the righteous.

I can't prove it, but I can say it.

I love funky styles. Not preppy or rock, just funky!
