The character is close to me, except that I haven't lived through those situations, so it's not completely me.

When you fight against your own weaknesses, there's something embarrassing about it.

I don't have a career plan. I've never done that. Things happen accidentally and I've been lucky.

I like to play roles different from myself so I can hide behind them.

It was very liberating to be able to sing in English. It had a different resonance, different images. It was like being a stranger in a foreign land, which was helpful.

Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.

I don't feel that I've accomplished anything. I feel that it'll be better when I won't care as much, but it's so difficult to let go and accept all the wrong notes.
