I have been doing music all my life so everyday when I get up I expect music will be part of it.

The greatest guitar player in the world today for me is Paco de Lucia, who is actually Spanish.

I like Simon Cowell - look at how many great artists have come out of the U.K. because of him.

Love songs are one of the great essences of life, the only thing that's lasting.

As my career has progressed, I've had the pleasure of playing with the baddest jazz cats on the planet. But that doesn't change my desire to entertain folks. That's really who I am.

Guitar gigs were everywhere in the '50s, and I started diddling around so I could keep working. Playing honky-tonk, simple stuff. I took a few gigs with an organ band that put me out front.

I listen to other guitar players, yeah. It gives me new concepts and shows me where the instrument is going for the future and it is going some places. There are some musicians who are really putting out a good vibe with new theories. I try and keep up.

My whole career from the early 70s on has been mind-blowing. I didn't imagine in my life that I would ever be considered a guitar player first of all because I started off as a singer.

Call no man foe, but never love a stranger.

Family jokes, though rightly cursed by strangers, are the bond that keeps most families alive.

I am a victim-oriented person. I like to see that the victims know that they have a voice.

I am an African and I am very proud of that.

We say that the ICC is targeting Africans, but all of the victims in our cases in Africa are African victims.

I do not think that it is right for me to start giving opinions about the human rights situation of any country, including Gambia, except when those crimes translate into the crimes that I have to investigate.

I think my track record speaks for myself... I have been endorsed by the African Union, but I am a prosecutor for 121 states parties and this is what I intend to be until the end of my mandate.

What offends me the most when I hear criticisms about this so-called Africa bias is how quick we are to focus on the words and propaganda of a few powerful, influential individuals, and to forget about the millions of anonymous people who suffer from their crimes.

If every call to Christ and His righteousness is a call to suffering, the converse is equally - every call to suffering is a call to Christ, a promotion, an invitation to come up higher.

Intercessory prayer might be defined as loving our neighbour on our knees.

Prayer is not so much the means whereby God's will is bent to man's desires, as it is that whereby man's will is bent to God's desires.

The real end of prayer is not so much to get this or that single desire granted, as to put human life into full and joyful conformity with the will of God.
