Nine years after I had my own accident, I find that in trying to go back to doing those things that I used to do just doesn't fit. Everything seems to just fall apart. I don't know why but I think it is because I am this new creature.

The death of my daughter is a subject I talk about briefly because there is nothing more tragic.

Live stage is being made as you go along. You feel the energy. There's nothing like a live audience.

When people come and see my show, I try to infuse into them that they can walk away feeling like their lives are a victory.

I had a teacher, he was 86 years old and his name was Luigi in New York City, and he said, 'Never stop moving. You get to reinvent yourself.' So you have to find ways to reinventing yourself. Especially today, because it's a whole different market - social media is so important.

Ive been blessed to be in a position to share (my experiences).

The theater was my first training ground. It taught me discipline, dedication and appreciation of hard work.
