It's incredibly liberating to spend an hour talking to someone and not caring about what you sound like. It's about understanding myself. Sometimes I'll speak to my therapist for an hour a day. It's become part of my routine.

I thank God that I'm a product of my parents, that they infected me with their intelligence and energy for life, with their thirst for knowledge and their love. I'm grateful that I know where I come from.

I have never had one moment of stage fright and performing has always been a huge thrill and source of enjoyment for me. It's part of my personality.

I think my dad is the only Arabic descendent who is an unsuccessful businessman.

You collect impressions from people, from life, from your own daydreams.

It doesn't matter if you are a musician, a business leader, a president or a student. We all have a responsibility to give back.

If you can prove the existence of God, it can only be proven through love.
