Yanni
I’ve always lived in the moment.

Yanni
The live concerts are everything and I’m very grateful that most of my career, I’m a live artist, I’ve been doing this. So I’ve traveled quite a lot, played in - I never stopped playing.
Yanni
That adage about genius being 5 percent inspiration and 95 perspiration - it's true.
Yanni
My mother loved everyone she came in contact with. She always shared her love and was able to heal those around her with it.
Yanni
Sometimes we get caught up in our troubles and our problems and we let life slip away, but life is precious, all of life, and one must try to take in as much of it as possible.
Yanni
