It's glorious to be able to go onto the Internet and hear any kind of music anywhere, from anywhere, and get it instantly.

When I was three, I didn't play with other kids very much; I was kind of isolated. I got used to be being bullied and having to think my way out of situations in the same way that other kids would fight their way out. Then I discovered a piano, and it became my playmate.
I wanted when we began this to have a conversation, the kind that you're able to have, and the only way I knew how to do it was not to have a pre-interview.

I'm grateful that I have a theater career because television isn't kind to you when you're over forty.
