I was very depressed when I was 19... I would go back to my apartment every day and I would just sit there. It was quiet and it was lonely. It was still. It was just my piano and myself. I had a television and I would leave it on all the time just to feel like somebody was hanging out with me.

You are equally important to me, and I love you all.

I am a woman of theatre, I'm a librarian of theatre and I love all different kinds of music and all different kinds of expressions.

I'm encouraging you to know what you're worth. And know that no matter who has more money in class, who has more stuff, who has a country house - nobody is worth more than anybody else.

When I was younger, I felt pressure to become someone else once I became successful.
