“Only a fool permits the letter of the law to override the spirit in the heart. Do not let a piece of paper stand in the way of true love and headlines.”

A show is like having a climax. It’s like having an incredible, natural climax. And then suddenly it’s all finished, and you don’t know what to do next.

Whatever road you choose, I’m right behind you win or lose.

Every picture tells a story, don’t it?

Listen, if my career was to end tomorrow, I would have no complaints whatsoever.

I’m only lookin’ for a fantasy, an interlude from reality.

When the one you love is in love with someone else, don’t you know it’s torture, I mean it’s living hell.

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand. But you turned into a lover, and mother what a lover, you wore me out.

Spread your wings and let me come inside.

I’m shrewd about money; I invest well and look after it. But it’s in my nature to be generous. I look after people.
