Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

And, in the end The love you take is equal to the love you make.

I can't listen to that much Wagner. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland.

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.

The only escape from the miseries of life are music and cats...

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.

Being a celebrity has taught me to hide, but being an actor has opened my soul.

Critics are the men who have failed in literature and art.

We're not trying to change the world; just music.

The absence of limitations is the enemy of art.

People ask me how I make music. I tell them I just step into it. It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow. Every moment in the river has its song.

I'm very happy to hear that my work inspires writers and painters. It's the most beautiful compliment, the greatest reward. Art should always be an exchange.

I accept chaos, I'm not sure whether it accepts me.

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

Every actor in his heart believes everything bad that's printed about him.

Let silence be the art you practice.

Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo.

What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.
