You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial but in victory.

I can imagine few things more trying to the patience than the long wasted days of waiting.

I came to parenting the way most of us do - knowing nothing and trying to learn everything.

I'm trying to break any chain of negative parenting that I might have survived.

Each of us has a very rich nature and can look at things objectively from a distance and at the same time can have something more personal to say about them. I am trying to look at the world and at myself from many different points of view. I think many poets have this duality.

There's something in human nature the trying-to-get-on-with-it quality of people the struggle to maintain or keep the show going can be exhausting.

What is a scientist after all? It is a curious man looking through a keyhole the keyhole of nature trying to know what's going on.

Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because in the last analysis we ourselves are a part of the mystery that we are trying to solve.

I was trying to do too many things at the same time which is my nature. But I was enjoying it and I still do enjoy it.

I'm concentrating on staying healthy having peace being happy remembering what is important taking in nature and animals spending time reading trying to understand the universe where science and the spiritual meet.

Nature is trying very hard to make us succeed but nature does not depend on us. We are not the only experiment.

All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was.

I just want to keep making music recording and trying different things. I don't want to do the same thing all the time.

I'm not trying to keep up or adapt. I'm allowing myself to grow evolve and create new music.

When you grow up in the music industry trying to be Britney Spears because that's what sells records and then you realize 'All I have to do is be myself? I should have thought of that a long time ago ' it feels good to have success come from what's actually inside of you.

What I'm trying to do is find either existing properties or come up with properties or angles or stories which will create music drama. It's my obsession and most of all I would like to remain working in theatre. I think it's very much alive.

A movie goes from several stages from idea to script. As you continue shooting you will make some adjustments. You're constantly adjusting. It's like a piece of music. You're constantly trying to make it better.

I'm not trying to clock scores in this lifetime it's just that things are better now than they were like five ten years ago. Music has gotten a lot better. There's a lot of people who are committed to - soulfully.

I am trying to walk a tightrope trying to keep the DJ community happy while trying to spread the message about dance music to more people. That is the mission that I am on.

I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection. So what I do as I'm writing a movie is go through all those songs trying to find good songs for fights or good pieces of music to layer into the film.

Back then people closed their eyes and listened to music. Today there's a lot of images that go with the music. A lot of music is crap and it's all commercial and the images are all trying to sell the record.

The reflection of the world is blues that's where that part of the music is at. Then you got this other kind of music that's tryin' to come around.

If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music.

I don't live in the past at all I'm always wanting to do something new. I make a point of constantly trying to forget and get things out of my mind.
