We Only Begin To Live Life When

When I Sit In Paris In A Cafe, Surrounded By People, I Don't Sit Casually - I Go Over A Certain Sonata In My Head And Discover New Things All The Time.

At Every Concert I Leave A Lot To The Moment. I Must Have The Unexpected, The Unforeseen. I Want To Risk, To Dare. I Want To Be Surprised By What Comes Out. I Want To Enjoy It More Than The Audience. That Way The Music Can Bloom Anew. It's Like Making Love. The Act Is Always The Same, But Each Time It's Different.

I Have Found That If You Love Life, Life Will Love You Back.

When I Was Young, I Used To Have Successes With Women Because I Was Young. Now I Have Successes With Women Because I Am Old. Middle Age Was The Hardest Part.

You Cannot Play The Piano Well Unless You Are Singing Within You.
