Birthday Quotes

That's when I started to grasp it and enjoy it, listening to it. Then I started being in bands at school.

Let's make my birthday, July the 7th at noon, Peace and Love Day. Everybody go, 'Peace and love.' In the office, on the bus, wherever.

In fact, I even have it on my arm, 'Peace and love'. I see nothing wrong with peace and love.
