Baby I know, the first cut is the deepest.
Cat Stevens
Islam is not just a religion. Islam is everything.
Cat Stevens
Knowledge is a thing you can carry around with you, but you may not apply it. Some knowledge is indiscriminate, and it can be damaging. I recently found a wonderful definition of wisdom: It is that thing which results in the maximum good and the least harm.
Cat Stevens
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul Where I end up, well, I think only God really knows.
Cat Stevens
Love heats my blood, blood spins my head, and my head falls in love.
Cat Stevens
Can't keep it in, Gotta let it out.
Cat Stevens
You can argue with a philosopher, but you can’t argue with a good song. And I think I’ve got a few good songs.
Cat Stevens
I became very famous, as a teenager, and my name and photo were splashed in all the media. They made me larger than life, so I wanted to live larger than life, and the only way to do that was to be intoxicated.
Cat Stevens
Take your time, think a lot, Why, think of everything you've got. For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not. From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen. Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go.

After embracing Islam in 1977, I considered the majority of underprivileged dark-skinned people of the so-called Third World brothers and sisters in humanity.
Cat Stevens
I had to learn my faith and look after my family, and I had to make priorities. But now I've done it all and there's a little space for me to fill in the universe of music again.
Cat Stevens
And if my mind breaks up In all so many ways I know the meaning of The words, I love you
Cat Stevens
It's true that the Internet is an equalizer, and everybody can be a star now. Musicians are more touchable these days, and that's a good thing. It's certainly the way I like to live my life, and it's why I don't do concerts in big arenas - I prefer to be in touch with my audience.
Cat Stevens
I tried Zen and Ching, numerology, tarot cards and astrology. I tried to look back into the Bible, and could not find anything. At this time I did not know anything about Islam, and then, what I regarded as a miracle occurred. My brother had visited the mosque in Jerusalem, and was greatly impressed that while on the one hand it throbbed with life.
Cat Stevens
The sexual act - separating that from love itself - is centered solely in the body, whereas spirituality is connected to the whole self. Whether it's a female, a taste, or a sound, all these beautiful things affect our self. We are the perceivers of beauty, and that's why sex doesn't quite go far enough. You can go much further with the spiritual.
Cat Stevens
But when it comes to being loved, she's first/That's how I know The first cut is the deepest.
Cat Stevens
I was brought up in the modern world of all the luxury and the highlight of show business. I was born into a Christian home.
Cat Stevens
Man is created to be God's deputy on earth and it is important to realize the obligation to rid ourselves of all illusions and to make our lives a preparation for the next life.
Cat Stevens
Music is a lady that I still love because she gives me the air that I breathe. We need all sorts of nourishment. And music satisfies and nourishes the hunger within ourselves for connection and harmony.
