Notable Quotes
I’m from Japan but I live in America, YOSHIKI said. When Japan got hit by the Tsunami Earthquake in 2011, the people of America supported Japan. I was really moved by that, so I’d like to keep supporting America as much as I can. My heart goes out to all those who are affected.
Yoshiki, not only are you a god to many women in the world, but you now have just become the super god in my heart.
What an extravagant human being.
