My baby lives in shades of blue, blue eyes and jazz and attitude.

I was never successful in a noteworthy way, no one wrote about me, and I didn't have recognition. I've met a lot of musicians along the way who thought I was good, and they knew that was important to me. Having a simple career as a musician who liked music was good enough for me.

It's amazing what happens when you put your interests out into the universe and make it known what you want.

When I was very young I was sort of floored by the fact that my mother and my father and everyone I knew was going to die one day, and myself too. I had a sort of a philosophical crisis. I couldn't believe that we were mortal.

I only know how to do me, so that's just what I'm going to do.

Being human is difficult. Some people make it more difficult than others. I was one of those people.

when your happiness is someone else's happiness, that is love
