All my life I have had a choice of hate and love. I chose love and I am here

My biggest dream to connect people through music has come true. In a world where there are enough reasons to separate us, the Oscars have unified us.
A. R. Rahman
These are the Rad instruments that are dying out in India. So, it's going well and I think now we are increasing the number of kids we have taught and of course we are helping out with other things too. It's based in India now. [The idea is to] perfect it in one place and then we'll expand.
A. R. Rahman
The more I compose, the more I know that I don't know it all. I think it's a good way to start. If you think you know it all, the work becomes a repetition of what you've already done.
A. R. Rahman
If music wakes you up, makes you think, heals you...then, I guess the music is working.
A. R. Rahman
The institution of marriage works better when there's a spiritual connection. If you're marrying just for the sake of the woman, then you may lose interest in each other very soon. When we marry in the interest of the Holy Spirit with the intention of serving God and humanity, then it gives a much larger perspective.
A. R. Rahman
I love the voice - it’s the most perfect instrument ever heard. It’s God given.
A. R. Rahman
I was a common man, and I will always remain a common man. No amount of stardom will ever consume my soul. Money comes, money goes. Fame comes, fame goes. I believe every human being is a celebrity in their own right.
A. R. Rahman
Since I worked with Danny Boyle before on Slumdog Millionaire, we have great success and everything. So, when I first got the script and the screenplay of Simon (Beaufoy) and I was reading it, even before the shoot, some kind of sounds came into my mind and I put some stuff [down] and sent it to Danny when he was cutting the movie.
A. R. Rahman
Music knows no barrier of age or culture. It isn’t about being politically correct or even making a statement. Music is what appeals to the ears and touches your soul.
A. R. Rahman
Music is language itself. It should not have any barriers of caste, creed, language or anything. Music is one, only cultures are different. Music is the language of languages. It is the ultimate mother of languages.
A. R. Rahman
The idea of music is to liberate the listener and lead him to a frame where he feels he is elevated.
A. R. Rahman
I grew up on Bach and Beethoven and now I'm listening to more modern composers who I can't even name. But since I'm constantly doing music, it's difficult to have that quality time to listen to music and do classical stuff. That's the only reason I'm thinking of going on.
A. R. Rahman
There is only one of the two that can reside in our hearts, GOD or ego. If GOD is in ego is out.
A. R. Rahman
That's a sound design thing but then we wanted to do music that would not disturb it and at the same time drive it.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Obama, Thank you for sending me Christmas and New Year greetings yet again. Welcome back to India... Would have loved to host you at my concert in Baroda on the 26th!
A. R. Rahman
There were basically three themes. One was the sun theme which is the guitar when he'd get sun on his leg and it comes again in the end. And there's of course the lullaby which Dido sang, If I Rise. And then there's this driving guitar which is the motivation theme.
A. R. Rahman
There have been predictions that the world will come to an end on 21.12.12. But I look around me and I see so much scope for hope.
A. R. Rahman
When I initially read the script, it goes inside and comes out different things even without commenting on any stuff. And then, those pieces are taken out and then spread out through the movie.
A. R. Rahman
You can't be without passion. Passion means the possessiveness to be the best.
A. R. Rahman
