When you actually like each other it translates to the music.

With music you often don't have to translate it. It just affects you and you don't know why.

The spiral in a snail's shell is the same mathematically as the spiral in the Milky Way galaxy and it's also the same mathematically as the spirals in our DNA. It's the same ratio that you'll find in very basic music that transcends cultures all over the world.

Music is the effort we make to explain to ourselves how our brains work. We listen to Bach transfixed because this is listening to a human mind.

The absolute transformation of everything that we ever thought about music will take place within 10 years and nothing is going to be able to stop it. I see absolutely no point in pretending that it's not going to happen. I'm fully confident that copyright for instance will no longer exist in 10 years.

The real art of conducting consists in transitions.

It is very clear that voice communications is moving on to the Internet. In the end the price that anyone can provide for voice transmission on the Net will trend toward zero.

Books and movies are different art forms with different rules. And because of that they never translate exactly.

I'm not sure anybody's ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities.

He who every morning plans the transactions of the day and follows that plan carries a thread that will guide him through a labyrinth of the most busy life.

To give money to a woman - and here I must speak as a man - is to deny her special quality her irreplaceability and reduce her unique amiability to a commodity. Money takes away her name while transforming her lover into a nameless customer of a market of appetites.

Ignorant people see life as either existence or non-existence but wise men see it beyond both existence and non-existence to something that transcends them both this is an observation of the Middle Way.

As a physician and as a pilot I think it lets me be a pretty good translator having one foot in the medical world and one foot in the flying world. Sometimes when the medical guys come in and speak medical stuff to the pilots the pilots really don't know what they're saying.

Money has transformed every watchdog every independent authority. Medical doctors are increasingly gulled by the lobbying of pharmaceutical salesmen.

Marriage is the miracle that transforms a kiss from a pleasure into a duty.

I don't think marriage is a civil right but I think that being able to transfer property is a civil right.

What I believe is that marriage is between a man and a woman but what I also believe is that we have an obligation to make sure that gays and lesbians have the rights of citizenship that afford them visitations to hospitals that allow them to be to transfer property between partners to make certain that they're not discriminated on the job.

A lot of times black folks look for love in all the wrong places. You're always looking for somebody to love you be accepted and there's the insecurities that are even transmitted through rap. Everyone is trying to aim to please too much.

If love does not know how to give and take without restrictions it is not love but a transaction that never fails to lay stress on a plus and a minus.

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.

The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth the delight the ecstasy of it you will discover that for you the world is transformed.

Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment and offer you more joy than any material possession could.

There is a vitality a life force an energy a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all time this expression is unique.

I have strongly rejected the proposal to pardon and transfer her to the United States. I do not have the legal power to pardon terrorists and even if I did I would not use it.
