SUMMONER'S TALES...
"For people like me who are in the spotlight, who perform in front of many thousands of people, one thing is important: You can't deal with death while you're in the spotlight. Reflection must take place away from it. Only by dealing with it quietly can you learn to accept the fact that one day you will no longer be here. Accepting that makes life richer, more vibrant."
