I love the lower ranges of my new voice. I really enjoy that. It's a challenge, and I accept the challenge. I sort of enjoy it now to reach notes that maybe four years ago I couldn't reach. I don't mean to grumble about it. I'm past that critical period and have gone on to a whole new field. And we go everywhere. We travel around the world, and I learn songs from every place we go, and it's a joyful process.

The only thing that's been a worse flop than the organization of nonviolence has been the organization of violence.

As we know, forgiveness of oneself is the hardest of all the forgivenesses.

Nonviolence is a flop. The only bigger flop is violence.

Some people don't even notice. "Oh, you sound exactly like you did!" And I say, "OK, if that's what you want to believe, that's fine."

Noise is an imposition on sanity, and we live in very noisy times.

To love means you also trust.
