When you truly accept that those children in some far off place in the global village have the same value as you in God's eyes or even in just your eyes, then your life is forever changed; you see something that you can't un-see.

Where you live in the world should not determine whether you live in the world.

I will admit that we are attracted to issues that unify people rather than divide them.

Overcoming my dad telling me that I could never amount to anything is what has made me the megalomaniac that you see today.

What turns me on about the digital age, what excited me personally, is that you have closed the gap between dreaming and doing. You see, it used to be that if you wanted to make a record of a song, you needed a studio and a producer. Now, you need a laptop.

There's a point where you find yourself tiptoeing as an artist, and then you know that you're in the wrong place.

Actually oddly enough, I think my work, the activism, will be forgotten. And I hope it will. Because I hope those problems will have gone away.
