We are blessed and sustained by what is not said

I have a voice that's obviously untrained - and I think untrainable - so I kind of secreted it away for a long time. Actually, I would write songs with lyrics when I was younger, but I would just sing in my head.

The way that words fit together is always interesting to me. I love words.

People are often afraid for me. They think that I am going to break. I can make it through a set.

There are some mornings when the sky looks like a road.

I had known that people would probably have strange reactions to my voice, because I have kind of an unwieldy, difficult voice, but I never thought that anybody would have a problem with the harp. I just assumed... C'mon, it's a beautiful instrument.

I never thought people would be mortally offended by the sounds I was making.
