Faith has a role to play in life. It is not related to success. It is the other way round. Success is related to faith. Faith comes first.

My life experience has taught me nothing happens by chance. Even the idea of the ball in a roulette game: it's not chance it ends up in a certain place. It's forces that are at play.

Even in the most beautiful music there are some silences, which are there so we can witness the importance of silence.

Apart from a period of crisis during my adolescence, when my voice was changing and I could not tame it - it was like a kicking foal that does not listen to reason - I have always been told I have a pleasant and recognizable voice.

The themes I sing about tend to be centered on love, but in the most total, general way 360 degrees of love.

I don't like crying. I'm a country boy, and we're the product of our upbringing. As a boy, I was told that men don't cry.

I do not think anyone can ever do anything without the help and will of God.
