Some values must be universal, like human rights and the equal worth of every human being.

Before the Beatles, songwriters were very anonymous people and nobody paid any attention to them.

The UN declaration on human rights must always be first in line before religion or other cultural habits, in case of any conflict between them.

I'm so incredibly tired of giving respect to a lot of delusions and crazy ideas just because they are regarded as religions.

Well mostly in song writing my experience is that there isn't so much inspiration as hard work. You sit there for hours, days and weeks with a guitar and piano until something good comes.

In my career the push has always been to take another step, to try something new.

I believe that religion should be totally separated from the state. That's not the way it is today, not even in Sweden.
