“While other creators make a big show of their art Mani Sir makes it look as though anyone can do what he does.”

The best way would be education and kids and all that stuff and then education and working education comes through. Then I started a music school and the music school now teaches kids to play the violin and the viola.

Be original and find your inner voice. The rest will follow.

People Expect Something New From Me All The Time.And That’s Good It Keeps Me On The Edge

I don’t even know where mine [Oscar award] is. My mother has hidden it because everybody who comes in wants to take a photograph of it. So what she’s done is she put it inside a suitcase somewhere.

I believe that whatever comes at a particular time is a blessing from God.

I want to go beyond the restrictions of language, religion and caste, and music is the only thing that allows me to do that.

Music is language itself. It should not have any barriers of caste, creed, language or anything. Music is one, only cultures are different. Music is the language of languages. It is the ultimate mother of languages.

Your inner voice is the voice of divinity. To hear it, we need to be in solitude, even in crowded places.

The more you know the less you talk.

I am a big admirer of Sachin and his personality. He is a source of inspiration for the country and just looking at his photographs gives a lot of positive vibes.

There have been predictions that the world will come to an end on 21.12.12. But I look around me and I see so much scope for hope.

You can’t be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.

No regrets. There is no time for that. Regret is boring.

I wanted to be part of something bigger.

When I initially read the script, it goes inside and comes out different things even without commenting on any stuff. And then, those pieces are taken out and then spread out through the movie.

Sometimes I intentionally cut it off. I just want to be in silence, especially when I’m traveling. I watch movies without sound.

I feel a bit awkward playing in a red shirt out at Wimbledon. But I don’t dislike it.

Regardless of how you feel inside, always try to look like a winner.

It doesn’t have to glitter to be gold.

Donald Trump can’t come up with a hairstyle that looks human, how can he come up with a plan to defeat ISIS.

I want to be a politician. I think I understand how the system works, I think a lot of politicians are corrupt, and it’s about time we put some people in there who are going to look out for the majority of the people instead of the rich people.

My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body. I want women to know that it’s ok. That you can be whatever size you are and be beautiful inside and out.

If one’s reputation is a possession, then of all my possessions, my reputation means most to me.

Unless you’re willing to look a little foolish, forget the possibility of becoming great.
