God is infinitely creative, and everyone's different, and everyone has a different path, a different lesson, a different song, a different face, a different voice.

I'm not just making rhymes and making melodies. I'm expressing my true life force, energy.

The songs that I've written about Africa, and AIDS and HIV and about the power of humanitarian love, those songs, I'm gonna sing them because I know that it's real.

If you give me half a chance. I'll prove this to you. I will be patient, kind, faithful and true.

If I'm not doing anything to make a change, then I'm responsible.

Eating is not one of the things that I do now to deal with pain, because I don't ever want to do that. But I isolate myself, that's what I do.

No matter what anybody says, what matters most is what you think of yourself.
