When you are optimistic, when you are not complaining, when you look at the good side of your life, everybody loves you.

I've always been an optimist and I believe laughter is a wonderful thing

I think backwards. "This was beautiful." Instead of forward.

I have lived through many wars and have lost everything many times Yet, life is beautiful, and I have so much to learn and enjoy. I have no space nor time for pessimism and hate.

Music was our food... When we can play, it can't be so terrible. The music, the music!

Life is beautiful. You have to be thankful that we are living. Wherever you look is beauty. I know about the bad things, but I look for the good things.

Music was our way of remembering our inner selves, our values.
