Very often when I go in to meet for movies or pilots, I'm put on videotape. I hate the notion that that tape is going to sit on a shelf and never get better.

I'd forgotten I'd done the anime called Spirited Away, the English version of a Japanese film.

I've played Lear three times, I would love to do it again.

Very often, I don't make it through moments of recording because it is genuinely funny and absolutely ridiculous that a 60-year-old grown man is making these noises.

What we have to get clear to kids is that when you offer your stillness and open yourself to the experience of music, it pays you back more than you give.

Because I don't take money, I'll go anywhere and do a benefit concert with almost any orchestra.

It's rare to be treated like a friend you haven't met in a Hollywood meeting.
