We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.

My sisters and I were fortunate to travel through Asia and Europe at very young ages. We confronted extraordinary beauty in Athens and unspeakable poverty in India.

No one's going to be able to operate without a grounding in the basic sciences. Language would be helpful although English is becoming increasingly international. And travel. You have to have a global attitude.

Back then I didn't have a big organization around me. I was just a kid with a guitar traveling around. My responsibility basically was to the art and I had extra time on my hands. There is no extra time now. There isn't enough time.

I am not a great cook I am not a great artist but I love art and I love food so I am the perfect traveller.

My parents started with very little and were the only ones in their families to graduate from college. As parents they focused on education but did not stop at academics - they made sure that we knew music saw art and theatre and traveled - even though it meant budgeting like crazy.

I've always liked traveling around Europe and seeing the architecture. The buildings in capital cities have been there for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years. Some look better than the new ones.

The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish.

Hurt leads to bitterness bitterness to anger travel too far that road and the way is lost.

Having my first number one single and being able to travel to places I've never been before has been amazing. The tour was also fantastic. There are so many things which I've experienced this year which I never even dreamed of.
