My friends gave me the first songs which was the first food in my soul for me.

Every time I would open my mouth to sing, everybody was paying attention to me. It became a habit.

Once I was condemned to three months' absolute silence. As I could not speak, I wrote a book.

It's nice to look good, but the most important thing is to be you.

Wherever you turn, there is always something wrong with the politicians. They have everything they need to save the world, and they don't save it.

I thought it was respectful to each country to sing in their language.

I like to cook, but mostly Greek. When I am confused or tired, I think about what I can cook. It takes you away from everything, as you are thinking only of your dish.
