Performing is an experience, for me, that is as humbling as it is energizing.

The time I spent thinking about how I was better than somebody else or worrying about somebody else's attitude was time I could put to better use.

I was always a dreamer, in childhood especially. People thought I was a little strange.

I grew up not liking my father very much. I never saw him cry. But he must have. Everybody cries.
