My Daughter's Birth Was Like A Rebirth

Happiness Lies In Your Own Hand

I Think That Life Is A Paradox And You Have To Embrace That In Your Work And Your Belief Systems... You Can't Be A Literalist, And That's The Trouble That People Always Find Themselves In. That's Why People Always Hit A Wall With Any Of My Stuff, Because You Can't Take It Literally.

The Fact Of The Matter Is That You Can Use Your Beauty And Use Your Charm And Be Flirtatious, And You Can Get People Interested In Your Beauty. But You Cannot Maintain That. In The End, Talent Is The Only Thing. My Work Is The Only Thing That's Going To Change Any Minds.

I Could Never Work In A Recording Studio Where You Have This Lovely View And A Beach And The Waves Are Crashing. For Me, It's All About Being In A Tiny Room With Little Windows. It's Almost Like You Have To Be In A Prison. And You Can Create Beauty When You're In That Sort Of Deprived Environment, Which Is A Re-creation Of Your Formative Years.

Like A Virgin, Touched For The Very First Time.
