Quotes from Diane Warren

I grew up listening to hits, and if I write something I feel, I think that's pretty mass appeal. I'm not very elitist with music. Love is universal; a great melody is universal; it goes around the world; it's not just American. A great song can touch the world.

When I turned 14, I became very obsessed with writing songs, and it took over my existence.

I've been lucky, because people have done such great versions of my songs, and I've worked with the best singers ever, and I'm lucky that way.
