I don't look at people's expressions, because I still get nervous when I play, especially when I first put the harp up there. I just try to tune - it takes me a half-hour to tune, and I get nervous if I look at anybody when I do it.

I did spend a year in high school being obsessed with Fleetwood Mac.

I can bear a lot but not that pall

Never get so attached to a poem that you forget truth that lacks lyricism.

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

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

I've been unaware of how people react to the instrument. People have ideas of what a harp is supposed to sound like, and a lot of them are negative ideas.
