I love putting the music together. It's like art.

What does music mean to me? I don't think I would really be much without it, without it coming through me. It's my means of communication, my means of growth, my means of transportation from one point in my life to another.

I have the ability to sing with emotion and feeling, but if you say I sound like Billie Holiday, that's cool. Let's look at who Billie was: she was this person, this singer, this beautiful diva who could move the audience with the slightest gesture of her hand.

Man, I don't want to have nothing to do with computers. I don't want the government in my business.

Artists need some kind of stimulating experience a lot of times, which crystallizes when you sing about it or paint it or sculpt it. You literally mold the experience the way you want. It's therapy.

Personally, I don't choose any particular religion or symbol or group of words or teachings to define me. That's between me and the most high. You know, my higher self. The Creator.

I am not systematic at all when it comes to religion. I just love life. And I'm not judgmental. And I'm a vegetarian.

I think a lot of people have lost respect for the individual, you know, the individual, the person who doesn't conform.

What I work hard at doing is staying on a path of being kind and showing and proving that I'm a good person to society. That's hard. The talent, that's a gift. I just came here like that.

But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different.

Pak-China friendship is higher than Himalayas, deeper than ocean, sweeter than honey, and stronger than steel.

CPEC is an epoch-making project going to put Pakistan-China friendship and their economic cooperation to new heights.

Kashmiri people are fighting the war for freedom. And India cannot stop this freedom movement through atrocities, as Kashmir dispute is a problem of humanity, human rights, and freedom.

No human being, religion, nation, and sect can deny respect to mother.

Musharraf has just gone against the constitution and displayed contempt of court and has shown that he has no respect for the rule of law.

The political parties who prefer lockdowns should end their politics that is based on negative attitude.

Neither politics of chaos and anarchy has succeeded earlier and nor will succeed in future.

We must act in unison and rising above politics on the question of development of the country and empowerment of the youth to raise them as future leader in every field of our national life.

Free quality health facilities have been made available to the children of the poor families through Daanish School System.

While security of national leadership is of paramount significance, expenditure on permanent civil structures at the family home of the prime minister and chief minister from public exchequer will be a burden on their conscience.

Without resolving Kashmir dispute, lasting peace cannot be maintained in the region.

People of Pakistan want only development, prosperity, and peace.

If Satan wasn't around, churches would go out of business.

A friendship between Germany and Israel didn't always seem natural.

I believe that our democratic values are also born out of our Jewish faith, a 'love for the stranger,' and equality before the law - these are not foreign values: this is Judaism.

It seems to me that many of the belligerent Jewish movements that were built upon hatred of Arabs - and I'm not only talking about Lieberman, but within the Likud as well - grew out of the patronizing socialist attitude that said, 'They'll be there, and we'll be here.'

A multicultural society does not reject the culture of the other but is prepared to listen, to see, to dialogue and, in the final analysis, to possibly accept the other's culture without compromising its own.

Direct talks is the only possible way to build trust and to resolve the conditions for a peace perspective between Palestinians and Israelis.

Learning the core curriculum cannot come through coercion. It must come through a recognition of the need to integrate with economic life.

No doubt, the most important thing in my career was my time with Mr. Bergman, with whom I worked in so many films and also in so many stage productions, so it was a continuous working relationship and also a friendship, of course, that lasted for so many years.

I admired Stephen Daldry very much; I think he's a brilliant director, and also, I feel close to him because he has a lot of theater behind him. He's also a man of great imagination and a lovely sense of humor.

Ingmar Bergman had a great sense of humor, and he had a very special, characteristic laugh that you always recognized - if he went to watch a theater show, 'Ah! He is here tonight.'

Most of the effort in the software business goes into the maintenance of code that already exists.

When I write software, I know that it will fail, either due to my own mistake, or due to some other cause.

Defect-free software does not exist.

Friendship formed in the glamour industry comes with mutual benefits, which is nice, but it is not the real deal.

I have a great liking for the Chamba folk music, which depicts the beauty of women and the mountains with a touch of Indian classical music.

My wedding was a very private affair for close family and friends, so I had decided to hold a reception in my native town.

I am really thankful to the audiences that they have appreciated all my songs and I have managed to touch their soul.

Being in a band is like a small family. You travel together, make music, and share time with each other.

The power and reach of music should never be underestimated.

There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time!

Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable.

Guilt is perhaps the most painful companion of death.

A women who doesn't wear perfume has no future.

Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.

Great loves too must be endured.

Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.

How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone.

There are people who have money and people who are rich.
