I feel sorry for a culture that depends too much on delegating its musical expression to professionals. It is fine to have heroes, but we should do our own singing first, even if it is never heard beyond the shower curtain.

In committing to artistic growth, you have to refine your skills to support your instincts.

What I think is the universal, wonderful thing about music, is that it's very inclusive.

I was never bored because I always had a book. So I had a doorway into another world or another universe. It was great.

What my true addiction is is reading. I love to read. If I'd get too loaded, I couldn't remember the sentence I just read.

I only notice the clothes I'm wearing.

You and I, travel to the beat of a different drum, can't you tell by the way I run, every time you make eyes at me.
