Music is the divine way to tell beautiful, poetic things to the heart.
In music, in the sea, in a flower, in a leaf, in an act of kindness... I see what people call God in all these things.
The most important thing in music is what is not in the notes.
Music must serve a purpose; it must be a part of something larger than itself, a part of humanity.
The greatest respect an artist can pay to music is to give it life.
Throughout my career, nervousness and stage-fright have never left me before playing. And each of the thousands of concerts I have played at, I feel as bad as I did the very first time.
Music will save the world.
