Music can change the world because it can change people.

Once you become predictable, no one's interested anymore.

Nature scarcely ever gives us the very best; for that we must have recourse to art.

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

One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product.

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

Rhythm is something you either have or don't have, but when you have it, you have it all over.

The absence of limitations is the enemy of art.

I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

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

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.

Poets and heroes are of the same race, the latter do what the former conceive.

An artist's duty is rather to stay open-minded and in a state where he can receive information and inspiration. You always have to be ready for that little artistic Epiphany.

Play it fuckin' loud!

To play without passion is inexcusable!

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

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

Artistic temperament is a disease that afflicts amateurs.

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.

Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.
