It's pretty much, having everything on your shoulder versus depending on an entire team.

You must act as if it's impossible to fail.

When people (talk trash) about you, you have to keep it moving, keep the records hot and keep your head up.

Its so important to never limit yourself, to find yourself in a box.

By going and coming, a bird weaves its nest.

What love will make you do All the things that we accept Be the things that we regret

Music comes from the soul. It's a way to express yourself, so we always, always need to save the music.

Only when you have crossed the river can you say that the crocodile has a lump on his snout.

No one tests the depth of a river with both feet.

Broadway is one of the hardest things I've ever done.

I'm weak cause I believe you and I'm mad because I love.

How can you see into my eyes like open doorsLeading you down into my coreWhere I've become so numb without a soulMy spirit sleeping somewhere coldUntil you find it there and lead it back home

You say that you don’t care about age and that you’re ready to push the wheelchair and hose down my bum, but how can you be sure?

We are each responsible for all of our experiences.

Who am I supposed to be again? Just be yourself. But who am I?

I'd be ashamed to see a woman walking around with my name-label on her, address and railway station, like a wardrobe trunk.

The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being.

You have to understand your own personal DNA. Don't do things because I do them or Steve Jobs or Mark Cuban tried it. You need to know your personal brand and stay true to it.

Your fans can't just pop in whenever they want. I'm not gonna allow someone to just drop over my house whenever they want like, "Hey what's up? I bought your album so what's for dinner?"

When its going good, cash in as hard as you can.

Mutual love, the crown of all our bliss.
