    • Quotes
      You know what? I love people. I really do. To a point where I almost can't stand to watch the news because if I see something happen to somebody, it almost feels as if it's happening to somebody in my family or somebody I know. I'm really sensitive, but I don't have a cocoon I can just hide into. That's why I enjoy going around the world doing what I do, and I try to say 'love" as much as possible. A lot of artists say 'love', but I really try to have people learn to love themselves and love each other. You know what I mean?
