Holding a note is a very difficult thing - you have to use your whole body to achieve a perfect pitch.

I play piano and I sing. But I do that for fun. I mean, I do everything for fun.

I really try to understand what people are saying and answer as honestly as I can. But sometimes it's like they try to tie you into knots. That's why I mostly steer clear of the popular press. I try not to read . . . Well, I never read gossip press. I just read books. And I never switch on the TV any more.

Eccentric is a difficult word because it's come to mean crazy. Avant-garde would be better. Eccentric is not "centric" in terms of having a center. Because sometimes it's used in a derogatory context.

I don't dress for effect, and I think that it never works out when someone does.

I know sometimes I can come off like a lonely spinster in a tower. That's not me at all.

My basic mathematics is rather weak, so when some of the theories are broken into equations, I get rather lost.
