Positive thoughts and prayer have been the best means available, since the beginning of time, to transform darkness to light.

I remember when I was a kid, when I just used to love listening to something again and again and over and over. You know, everybody else got sick of it, but I loved that discovery of music and what it did to my world, to my imagination. And so I started really considering, "Yeah, I've got to do more," for kids, particularly.

I became alienated from this religious upbringing, and started making music. I wanted to be a big star. All those things I saw in the films and on the media took hold of me, and perhaps I thought this was my god: the goal of making money.

You may still be here tomorrow...but your dreams may not.

Some extremists take elements of the sacred scriptures out of context.

The fact that the Prophet cared for every human being and tried his best to ensure their security in the hereafter must be the most telling of his compassionate and merciful characteristics.

Man may live and man may die searching for the question why. But if he tries to rule the sky, he must fall.
