"'Neo-Soul' is not a genre of music. It's a marketing term. 'Soul', as it should be, is what modern R&B fails to be."
God is not invisible. You see him after the rain when the plants turn green, when you lose your job and your bills still get paid,when your day sucks and a child still smiles and hugs you and when earthquakes happen and people who would otherwise be fighting reach out to help each other.
"Do you want to be a part of a fad, or be a Legend?"
"If there is a time when you can't smile, try making someone else smile. It may help you smile in the mean time"
"The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, he said. They're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and... and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away.

"Death of the heart. It's the ugliest death there is."
"There's only two kinds of music: Good and Bad." - Ray Charles
