“I’ve never read one book about my father.”

The political system is not for the people. The people are secondary to the economy. It’s about what generates money, not about what benefits the people.

The more you discover, the more you feel, until it becomes a part of you.

I always enjoy hearing different musical interpretations of the music.

I am a compassionate human being. I am who I am.

I always enjoy hearing different musical interpretations of the music.

It’s hard to say a favorite song of my father’s. I listen to all his stuff; a lot of the old stuff before the ’70s.

True music makes true fans.

I am a leader. Leaders always get heat. They’re always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat; Bob Marley got heat; Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you’re doing something right.

I like doing nothing, actually. Doing nothing is better thing when I am not working.

We can overcome the obstacles through human unity.

Yoga is a great thing and meditation is also great to get connected to yourself more.

It don’t last forever, the pain. Realize that tomorrow is coming. Move further from this pain and this stress.

Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing needs, is good for him.

Books are like seeds. They can lie dormant for centuries and then flower in the most unpromising soil.

I’m wondering what to read next.

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

It is far better to be silent than merely to increase the quantity of bad books.
