I want to tell the children of the world, you are all our children, each one of you is my child and I love you all.

Escapism and wonder is influence. It makes you feel good, and that allows you to do things. You just keep on moving ahead, and you say, 'God, is this wonderful - do I appreciate it.'

I just want to bring the world together. Togetherness is what I want for this planet.

We are Germans. We are Armenians. French, Italian, Russian, American, Asian, African... many other nationalities. We are Christians, Jewish, Muslim and Hindu. We are black, we are white. We are a community of some many differences, so complex and yet so simple. We do not need to have war!

I love my fans to pieces. They're with me. They get it, you know? They get what I'm saying.

They say that parenting is like dancing. You take one step, your child takes another.

Music is my contribution to life. I have my heart in it.
