“Love is that condition in the human spirit so profound that it allows me to survive, and better than that, to thrive with passion, compassion, and style.”
“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.”
“Nothing renews my faith in humanity more than the exchange of compassion so profound that mere words cannot embrace it.”
“Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.”
“So long as the human spirit thrives on this planet, music in some living form will accompany and sustain it and give it expressive meaning.”
“Unless love is passion, it's not love, but something else; and passion thrives not on satisfaction, but on impediment.”
