Music is a powerful tool in galvanizing people around an issue. There's no better way to get your point across than to put it in a beautiful song.

Together with a culture of work, there must be a culture of leisure as gratification. To put it another way: people who work must take the time to relax, to be with their families, to enjoy themselves, read, listen to music, play a sport.

To the best of my knowledge, none of the Beatles can read music.

Architecture produces a musical mood in our inner being, and we notice that even though the elements of architecture and music appear to be so alien in the outer world, through this musical mood engendered in us, our experience of architecture brings about a reconciliation, a balance between these two elements.

No two people on earth are alike, and it's got to be that way in music or it isn't music.

I had to listen to the classical music because it calms me down, calms my nerves down.

I say what I want to say with the music.

Music is a language in itself and the songs have their own soul, every song has its soul.

I think music is so diverse today, and bands are so diverse. If you were a rock band in the Eighties, you kind of had to stick to one thing. Now, in this age of Coachella and European festivals and stuff, it's kind of anything goes, so that allowed us to try different things.

For me, music and life are all about style.
