When the painting is hanging on your wall for a long time, you don't notice it. You get tired of it, even if it's a Picasso. When the next generation inherits the painting, they sell it. I don't want to be sold.

My life in the past 20 years has changed. I don't count days anymore, I count the hours, the minutes, the seconds.

People in love look into each other's souls, and it is that feeling that I try to capture when I sing.

When you get to the 35-year mark in your career, you make albums for your fans to love you more, so they don't forget about you.

I have respected women from the beginning of my life.

I will not give up to sing until the people say it's enough. I hope it will be very late.

You retire when you are sick and when you can't do it any more or when the public retires you. That's the most painful, because that's the one that leaves you wanting to accomplish more.
