I treat others exactly the way I want to be treated.

You'll never get to heaven, if you break my heart.

The problem with fame is you no longer belong to you. You lose your persona and become the object of other people's obsession.

I first came to Brazil in the Sixties. Then I started coming back every year since touring most of the country. I grew to love it, the people, the music. I thought this is where I belong. I've been living in Brazil for the past 23 years. I call it my stress-free country.

I am a combination of my entire family.

I like Brazilians and I like their values. They believe in family.

Years ago I learned to be totally responsible for Dionne Warwick. I will not wait for opportunities. I will create them.
