I can't understand it when people are closed-minded. I mean, boy, have I made mistakes and been very wrong. I can't tell you the amounts of times I've been let down, but I still try to see the best in people.

I don't like to look at myself in the mirror, which is why my eye makeup is always crooked.

I'd quite like to have one place where I stay put. And I don't like living in cities all the time. In order to have ideas, you have to have some peace and quiet.

I don't do event dressing, because every day is an event.

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.

We need a government, not politics. Because there's too much politics. Of course there should be debate. But there seems to be so much pettiness and not enough good faith. It is civilized to agree to disagree, and this idea is slowly disintegrating. The great statesmen of the past knew this, and I think it helps drive civilization.
