Quote by Cat Stevens
In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything.

In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything. I think thats kind of natural for anyone whos just embraced Islam – or any religion – as a convert. It was important for me to duck out of the fast and furious life Id been living as a pop star. I was in a different mood. – Cat Stevens
