Wir denken selten an das, was wir haben, aber oft an das, was uns fehlt.

Wie oft ärgern wir uns über unwichtige Kleinigkeiten, ohne in diesen Momenten zu sehen, dass das große Ganze stimmt.

Was brauche ich wirklich?

Es ist nicht Luxus, der uns glücklich macht, sondern das Gefühl von sozialer Sicherheit. Ist eine gute finanzielle Basis vorhanden, wiegen Werte wie Liebe, Gesundheit und Selbstbestimmtheit viel mehr.

It doesn't really feel like it's got anything to do with me. I mean, I know I wrote it, and all that and invented the characters and made it up, but it's Mike's film, so doing the press and stuff, it feels a little bit inauthentic. I was just one component of it.

Repetition makes reputation and reputation makes customers.

When I was 17, I taught music; I had 65 students a week, and I did that for a year. So that's pretty regular. But it was great to give the gift of music to people, seeing them learn. It's great to influence young people in a creative way.

I get a little heated when I talk about the past. But I wanted to be clear - I'm not mad at anybody - not anymore.

I think guilt is directional. You should get rid of it, but the way to get rid of it is not to get rid of the guilt feelings. It is to get rid of the wrong that you did that caused the guilt feelings.
