I get some flak for and some resistance from colleagues for because I'm interested in storytelling. I mean what I like about songwriting is songs used to tell a story.

Music is structure out of Chaos

I do not hope for what I cannot have! I do not cling to things I cannot keep!

Almost all the shows I've been connected with have been extremely well cast. They're playing the show, not just doing the songs.

The dumbing down of the country reflects itself on Broadway. The shows get dumber, and the public gets used to them.

No one has ever known me as clearly as you. No one has ever shown me that love allows everything. Not pretty or safe or easy but something I never knew. Love within reason, that isn't love and I learned that from you.

Everyone would like to be on Broadway, cause if a show works, you make a great deal of money and it allows you to write other shows.
