I wanted to do 'Kanchana' in Hindi but many heroes I approached were hesitant to act with the saree and also demanded that the climax song be removed completely. I wrote the script with such passion...

I still love playing music. It was all I ever wanted to do, and I got the chance to do it.

The only passion that guides me is for the truth... I look at everything from this point of view.

I've been singing since I was 16 because I love it - I wanted to be a singer, not a star. There's a difference between wanting to be famous and wanting to sing well.

I wasn't really a work - conscious type of person. I was a player. I loved to play sports.

I once asked Ozzy Osbourne, truly one of my favorite people in the world, if he was cool with singing Black Sabbath songs year after year, whether he was performing with Black Sabbath or out on a solo...

I wanna work; I love so much making films; I hope I can do one after the other. Being on set is what makes me happy, so... The more I can, the better.

You call it madness but I call it love.

Finding your passion is the key to your success. - Tracy Kauffman

"Evan Lucien, if it is my last act upon this Earth," he says, his eyes intense and shadowed in the lantern light, "I will make you come."

He crushed her mouth in a searing, hungry kiss. A kiss that made her stomach drop away.

"God, you're beautiful," he growled while his desire grew. "You keep telling me that and you'll have me believing it," she said with the sexiest, most breathless voice he'd ever heard. His fingers...

When you love your work then it isn't work, it's your love affair.

She drank in the sight of him, the power, the virility, the sheer sexiness. She knew just how well those lips of his kissed, how gentle and coaxing his hands could be, and how mouth-watering his body...

What man wanted a woman without fire, and vice - versa?

She admired her passion, knowing that passion is by definition excessive.

I cannot live without reading.

Most good chefs believe there is no such thing as too much garlic.

Imagination is the gatekeeper of the human soul.

Voice rough with lust, he said, I have one treasure. He slowed, pinning my gaze with his starry one. And she owns my soul

A woman may get to love by degrees-the best fire does not flare up the soonest.

Passion is of the nature of seed, and finds nourishment within, tending to a predominance which determines all currents towards itself, and makes the whole life its tributary.

These conquerors of the world are slaves to their passions, and someday their passions will bring them down.

The hope is always here, always alive, but only your fierce caring can fan it into a fire to warm the world.

Whenever I got any money, I invested it in books. When my savings dwindled, I got rid of everything else-pictures, furniture, china. I think you understand what it is to be a passionate collector of...

Becoming a book collector is like joining a religion: it's for life.

One by one they were all becoming shades. Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.

Few people, very few, have a treasure, and if you do you must hang on to it. You must not let yourself be waylaid and have it taken from you.

He makes His ministers a flame of fire. Am I ignitable? God deliver me from the dread asbestos of 'other things'.
