- The Power of Music -
"There are listeners who come and stand beside or in front of me, touching me, for the whole time.
There are always people who cry.
There are people who dance, and people who join in...
There are disturbed people who become calm, and silent people who give voice, frozen people who beat time.
There are people who don't know where they are, but who recognize me immediately,
as 'the Singing Lady.' "
