More quotes by Yanni
Maybe we didn't have many possessions, but we never went hungry, were cold, or lacked love.
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
I'd decided to take the risk, and either I'd succeed or else.

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.

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.

My father once said, ‘If the whole world wants to go left and you feel like going right, go right. You don’t have to follow. You don’t have to make a big deal about which way you’re going. Just go. It’s very easy.’

Music is like creating an emotional painting. The sounds are the colors.
Yanni
Being happy with less is what makes a great human being, not a big house with marble floors, or everyone knowing who you are.
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 really and truly believe that music represents humanity’s soul.
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.

Ever since I left Greece more than two decades ago, it has been my dream to return and perform at the Acropolis. This project took more than a year and a half to plan and accomplish, and I would like to thank my band and crew and the scores of people involved in helping my dream become a reality.
Yanni
Perhaps one of the most important lessons that I continue to have reinforced is to always have faith and believe in yourself. To never lose sight of who you are and to know yourself.
Yanni
You have to give up some of the old so that you can make room for the new.
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.
