The only reason they're out there is to see me fall into the damn orchestra pit.

There's no damn business like show business - you have to smile to keep from throwing up.

The whole basis of my singing is feeling. Unless I feel something, I can't sing.

Somebody once said we never know what is enough until we know what's more than enough.

If I'm going to sing like someone else, then I don't need to sing at all.

If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling. No two people on earth are alike, and it's got to be that way in music or it isn't music.

Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain.
