Quotes:
  • I never wanted to be famous. I only wanted to be great.
  • What is a soul? It's like electricity - we don't really know what it is, but it's a force that can light a room.
  • All my kids know me.
  • I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me-like food or water.
