Love comes to everybody in many different ways. Attraction is always the first thing, no? But love must be more than that. It must be magic.

Love is like wine. To sip is fine, but to empty the bottle is a headache.

You try to avoid the mistakes you made in the past.

I don't believe in frontiers, and I don't believe in races or nationalities.

I have discipline, I look after my voice.

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.

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.
