When I'm on the road with concerts, people ask me to autograph my CDs, but more and more they come up with the cookbooks.

I have no idea what's coming next or where it will come from; I enjoy the surprise of it all.

You rarely pay the rent by doing Shakespeare or Ibsen.

I'm on the board of directors for Peace Now, which works tirelessly between the Palestinians and the Israelis to create peace in the Middle East and we've never been closer.

Everything I experience influences everything I do.

Now get in the cartoonishly evil vehicle and drive!

I'm lyrically driven, I'm not musically driven.
