We must begin to make what I call "conscious choices," and to really recognize that we are the same. It's from that place in my heart that I write my songs.
We don't teach kids how to feel, we don't give them the words to go by.
Peace is a conscious choice.
I get an awful lot of fan mail, and I read all that I can.
I would so much like young people to have a sense of the gift that they are. Not many of them feel like that.
I believe that we are here for each other, not against each other. Everything comes from an understanding that you are a gift in my life - whoever you are, whatever our differences.
I think the biggest problem in the world is that we have a generation of young people, and maybe two, who don't think it's going to get any better.
