I love feeling like I have purpose and maybe that's the purpose I'm giving myself.

If you act brave, you can seem brave, and if you do it enough, you can talk yourself into believing you're brave.

Sunday's my favorite day - that one matinee in the middle of the day!

American theatre, to me, represents zeroing down on what the need is to get inside the personal hearts of people. I think it's really beautiful if we can keep doing that instead of just fluffing everything up and hiding again.

When I'm given an opportunity with music and goodness, then I want to do that [play that role]. I want to go all the way to the edge of that and make it as big as I can.

I'm trying to think of myself at a quiet time. I need to do better with a quiet mind because I'm constantly going and I think that's what feeds me. I've been that way my whole life. But I don't think I picture things so much as I talk them through. Words, words, words. Words and melody.

If a man thinks you're beautiful or thinks you're strong or thinks you're smart, take the power and use it, but don't need it.
