More quotes by Yanni
I know that our world is going through a very difficult time right now, but I will never lose my faith in humanity, and our incredible ability to overcome just about anything.
Yanni
It’s really strange, but they speak to me — the notes and the chords. So when I hear other people’s music, I can feel the composer. Whoever created that, I can see in their soul.
Yanni
Focused will is incredible. If you have a dream and you don’t give up no matter what obstacles come up, then life’s problems will fall away and you will get what you want. It happens. It works.
Yanni
Truth is the number one element in whatever you do with music.
Yanni
Whether a person is spiritual or not, we all seek to get away from the stress, anger, and anxiety of everyday life. Some people drink, do drugs, or do worse to escape, and they hurt themselves in the process. Some people listen to music, mine included, and feel better.
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
Continuing to create music and perform is so important to me for many reasons. I love the interaction and connection I get with people when we perform live. Nothing is more rewarding for me.
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
No matter what happens in life, never lose sight of who you are.
Yanni
When I create music, it is a reflection of my soul, my experiences in life and my relationships with other people and cultures. Psychology, and understanding who we are as people in this world, is present in almost every creative thought I have.
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
A little bit of fear means you are doing something worth doing--you are stretching...You are going outside your immediate grasp.
Yanni
I realize it's possible in ways both large or small to make a difference in someone's life.
Yanni
You need a mind open to possibility, conditioned to love the creative spirit we all have inside ourselves.
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
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
A simple life is good with me. I don't need a whole lot. For me, a T-shirt, a pair of shorts, barefoot on a beach and I'm happy.
Yanni
All you need is passion. If you have a passion for something, you'll create the talent.
Yanni
While most of the music I write is instrumental, I love to use the human voice as another instrument.
Yanni
Maybe we didn't have many possessions, but we never went hungry, were cold, or lacked love.
