The great fear I've had to overcome is the fear of failure. You have to be willing to be afraid, if you're going to be an artist.

Intelligence starts to get pretty dull if it's not coupled with kindness.

Success for me will be where the body of work I've done afforded me the opportunity to be as good as I can be, and to explore myself and to see what I'm capable of. People like that share a willingness to be scared and to take chances.

Musicals are finally kind of coming back to a degree, perhaps out of a sense of nostalgia.
