I tend to avoid writing music about initial reactions to situations, like frustration or anger. I’d rather wait till I go through the problem, and write about the learning that took place.

Of all the forces that are exerted on us over our lifetime, at least for me, love has been the most powerful of all.

I'm an optimist by choice not by stupidity.

I have been fortunate to have a career that has allowed me to travel the world and come in contact with many different cultures and people.

Being happy with less is what makes a great human being, not a big house with marble floors, or everyone knowing who you are.

I don't dwell in the past; I don't wallow in old events and emotions. I don't waste time on regret. No use going over and over the details of what already happened.
