Prince
When you sit down to write something, there should be no guidelines. The main idea is not supposed to be, 'How many different ways can we sell it?' That's so far away from the true spirit of what music is.

Only I can change my life...You can't build a great building on a weak foundation...No, because I've never really changed my style...You are free; you are free to go to your temples...There is no man, however wise, who has not...If you really want to receive joy and happiness...
