Stevie Wonder always smells so good... I'm like a DEA dog, I can smell people a block away!

You've got to believe. Never be afraid to dream.

Because it's one thing when you - oh, I love this tune. But then when you go to sing it, it's got to have something really personal. Then down to 25, and then to pick the final ones I just picked the ones that were more personal, that had something to do with my life.

Make sure everything you do you really like, because you have to sing it the rest of your life.

Later in life, the memories I have of my mother are of constant work balanced with caring for my ailing father.

There are so many difficult things we're living through in the world today, so many horrible events, but we cannot let them stop us. No matter what happens, I feel you must move forward with optimism and not get totally sideswiped.

One of the most beautiful things we can give our child is music education.
