I learned from my parents the idea that, if you are devoted enough and you want to study something enough, you can really teach yourself anything.

I feel like, when the audience connects with something, they enjoy the experience so much that they want other people to go have it. They're like, "Don't talk about it. Don't tell. Just go!"
