But I do like to have peace and quiet for a good hour.

I suppose young people think football is glamorous - soccer - it's big money and the stars of it, they look good and have a great big house and a huge Ferrari.

It's not a very high failure rate if you choose people that you really like the sound of.

And Mary J. Blige, she's got all these fur coats and hats and stuff. She's good; I like her.

Women! I have no idea. I don't know anything about women at all. They're a complete mystery to me.

I don't think I've ever played the Olympia before, but I'm not totally sure.

But I do like to have peace and quiet for a good hour.

Performing was terrifying.

I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. They dress up in these chains of gold, cars, girls and this and that, high-heeled shoes.

The quality of the writing, really. Simple as that. Beautiful words. It's very nice as a singer to do great songs, which have wonderful lyrics and strong feelings underneath the song.

I can never predict what's going to happen.

I mean, there are so many of his songs that I like that I could easily do that one day.

You can never get silence anywhere nowadays, have you noticed?

I had beautiful bikes and I was really into it. I just thought it was really glamorous.

But when you get music and words together, that can be a very powerful thing.

In New York, you couldn't wish for a nicer audience, or in L.A., Chicago, Boston. But when you get into secondary markets, they don't have a clue.

I like the fact that music is more abstract.

It's nice to know that there are several different avenues I could pursue.

Secretly, I wanted to look like Jimi Hendrix, but I could never quite pull it off.

I don't do interviews at all when I'm on tour, so this time, on a day off, I'll do that kind of thing a little bit. I don't do big promotion schedules, not when I'm touring.

When I stopped touring in the early '80s for a few years, it was a mistake looking back. I lost touch with my audience in a way and I think that was a bad career move.

But I don't write so much now, because they're too painful.

I like the name Atomic Kitten. It's so great.

I met John Lennon and he was with his wife in Tokyo. I met him there.

I didn't really want to give up music.

I've had quite a few moments I've liked, so it's good enough.

But I was feeling quite down at the time. I was living in L.A., which was kind of weird for me.

But when I started writing songs, I stopped painting completely, and the only art things I do are connected to the career, like album sleeves and, to some extent, posters and things like that.

Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

I like L.A., but I shouldn't live there.

Oh yes, much, because music is just something that comes to you. You don't question it.

It's fabulous when you do that, when you discover somebody who you like, when you kind of feel those feelings, even though he articulates them better.

I'm not really sure what it was, the best moment. You always hope it's to come.

Its fabulous when you do that when you discover somebody who you like when you kind of feel those feelings even though he articulates them better.

I've made my peace with myself.

At the end, the realization is that she had to get to a place in her life where she could drop her guard and make peace with the fact that whether she had a small amount of time, that she had to kind of live it completely through, instead of living by the rules.

Arafat rejected the deal because, as a dictator who had directed all his energies toward strengthening the Palestinians hatred toward Israel, Arafat could not afford to make peace.

But the deep desire for peace remained with the American people.

Peace does not include a vendetta; there will be neither winners nor losers.

There is nothing more agreeable in life than to make peace with the Establishment - and nothing more corrupting.

One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.

We believe that peace is not just signed papers, but rather a contract between generations for the building of a more promising and less threatening future.

Peace will be when you accept it in your heart.

Never for the sake of peace and quiet deny your convictions.

To me our bombing policy appears to be suicidal. Not because it does not do vast damage to our enemy, it does; but because, simultaneously, it does vast damage to our peace aim, unless that aim is mutual economic and social annihilation.

Peace Train is a song I wrote, the message of which continues to breeze thunderously through the hearts of millions of human beings.

We look forward to the time when the power to love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.

Although the troops have struck us, we throw it all behind and are glad to meet you in peace and friendship.
