Yanni
The studio work that I do allows me to connect with people around the world. You can't perform live for everyone, so having the ability to share my creative vision with others is very important to me as well.

Yanni
Sometimes the knowledge you've been given in school or by an elder - 'this is just the way it is' - keeps you from accomplishing because it traps you in a box in your mind and limits your freedom to deliver.
Yanni
I tend to avoid writing music about initial reactions to situations, like frustration or anger. I’d rather wait till I go through the problem, and write about the learning that took place.
Yanni
Maybe we didn't have many possessions, but we never went hungry, were cold, or lacked love.
Yanni
We need to learn to get along with each other and learn how to help one another.
Yanni
We need to learn how to love each other. If we cannot do that, then we need to learn to respect one another. If we can't manage to do that, then we must learn to tolerate each other.
Yanni
I just would use any instrument known to man in any combination as long as it describes an emotion.
Yanni
I don't want problems solved for me. I want the fishing rod, not the fish.
Yanni
