Everyone is either happy or dead..

Take charge of your thoughts!.

Life eats life to live..

Freedom is about what you can unleash..

I'm not part of the history, I am the history..

Love what you have and you'll have more love..

Life comes only from life..

I never get recognised..

Life is about coming back and mastering how to come back..

Whatever I do is out of love..

Rush is the death of marriage..

Failure is an option, fear is not..

Do not serve time, let time serve you..

I hope in general that my music allows somebody to follow what they really like doing..

I worked as hard as I could. I was always the first one on the ice, and the last one off..

My life was very Japanese..

Never hope for it more than you work for it..

The time had just come when I had been pushed as far as I could stand to be pushed..

I never thought of myself as a writer..

I am no I. I am now part of a we..

I don't back down for anybody..
