It was my dad’s idea that music is supposed to be more than simply about entertainment and making a living, but about being of service as an integral part of the consciousness of the world. In honor of him and because it’s right, I use music in that light.

I learned from my father that music is from God and the message is from God.

The last thing my father told me was: 'On your way up, take me up. On your way down, don't let me down.' A father telling his son that puts some responsibility on my shoulders. He told me that, and I take it very seriously.

The political system is not for the people. The people are secondary to the economy. It's about what generates money, not about what benefits the people.

It takes years to develop into the kind of human being you want to be.
