When I started studying for the arias it was like going into training for a heavyweight title fight

I was blown away by the control and the range that I was hearing. I'm listening to Pavarotti and thinking, What the hell have I been doing with my voice all these years?

Yes!!! I booked a commercial!!!

You're presuming too much by using the word legacy - presuming that someone is going to care.

Whoever best serves the song is going to be served by the song

You can't make everybody love what you do, but you can know how great you feel doing it.

As you get older, your experiences become more precious. Nothing material is important to me. It's people who are precious.
