“Hardly anybody recognizes the most significant moments of their life at the time they happen.”
“All of my most significant moments somehow involved music. It's like my life was a John Hughes film and somebody had to put together the perfect soundtrack.”
“A student to teacher: “I am so alone; I don’t know what to do?” Teacher: “Do not worry about being alone, we always come alone and go alone. In a very sweet accident, we meet others who are alone and start to be part of them in various forms of relationships such as friends, husband, wife, mother, father, sister and so on. So, life is about sharing a moment together, not thinking as if you are alone.”
“I've always thought people would find a lot more pleasure in their routines if they burst into song at significant moments.”
“A great writer picks up on those things that matter. It’s almost like their radar is attuned to the most significant moments.”
