We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

We were very close, and we shared each others' joys and sorrows.

I want to be as honest as I can about the things I've been through - the sorrows and joys, victories and defeats - and to use those experiences as a well to draw from. Hopefully, the songs that result from that kind of writing will be songs that mean something to others.

Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

All our words are but crumbs that fall down from the feast of the mind.
