Love is the reason for it all.

Keep it in tune with the times, but don't write with the specific purpose of trying to create a hit. If you're doing it strictly to make money, you're crazy. There are easier ways to make money.

I'm in the mood for love, simply because you're near me. Funny, but when you're near me I'm in the mood for love.

If you don't have a story that will hold the audience, you won't have a successful show.

The man in our society is the breadwinner; the woman has enough to do as the homemaker, wife and mother.

Write what you feel. Write because of that need for expression.

I don't care how good a song is. If it holds back the storyline, stalls the plot, your audience will reject it.
