I still don't understand the music industry that much. Everything I learned was from hanging out with rock musicians in studios. I certainly have respect for those who make music their livelihood.

Remember that there is always a limit to self-indulgence but none to self-restraint, and let us daily progress in that direction.

Mahatma Gandhi

Nothing is higher than the love of truth.

Aurelius Clemens Prudentius

In Heaven, I believe my dad is somewhere doing something nice. I feel I've been too lucky to travel this far without somebody guiding me.

Katherine Jenkins

Happiness, true happiness, is an inner quality. It is a state of mind. If your mind is at peace, you are happy. If your mind is at peace, but you have nothing else, you can be happy. If you have everything the world can give - pleasure, possessions, power - but lack peace of mind, you can never be happy.

Dada Vaswani

The French are wiser than they seem, and the Spaniards seem wiser than they are.

Francis Bacon

Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle shed,Where a Mother laid her BabyIn a manger for His bed:Mary was that Mother mild,Jesus Christ her little Child.

Cecil Frances Alexander, Once in

Sunrise doesn't last all morning, a cloudburst doesn't last all day, seems my love is up and has left you with no warning. It's not always going to be this grey. All things must pass, all things must pass away.

George Harrison

I've just got crap hair. Although I inherited a lot of stuff from my dad, including giant knees, I didn't get his good, thick hair. I got my mother's thin, wispy, non-event hair instead.

Jenny Eclair

When one door closes, another opens. But we often look so regretfully upon the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened for us.

Helen Keller

Let the public mind become corrupt, and all efforts to secure property, liberty, or life by the force of laws written on paper will be as vain as putting up a sign in an apple orchard to exclude canker worms.

Horace Mann

Now we have no God. We have had two: the old God that our fathers handed down to us, that we hated, and never liked; the new one that we made for ourselves, that we loved; but now he has flitted away from us, and we see what he was made of -- the shadow of our highest ideal, crowned and throned. Now we have no God.

Olive Schreiner

I almost got a psychology degree, I almost got a philosophy degree. I kept changing it so they couldn't make me graduate. I studied anthropology and eastern religion, epistomology, and astronomy... I took every interesting course I could find for nine years.
