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’ve always lived in the moment.
Yanni
I don't dwell in the past I don't wallow in old events and emotions. I don't waste time on regret. No use going over and over the details of what already happened.
