“I can sit on a boat or a river bank and problems that seemed insurmountable just don't seem that important anymore.”

“Foreign films have helped me because I've become identified with international stars.”

“Believe me, you're shooting dice every time you do a part.”

“More live recording. I have missed the boat over my career by not doing every second or third CD live because things happen onstage that don't happen in the studio.”

“I'm on my boat, training, rehearsing; I spend all my energy on the job that's coming up, and I found that's the way that works for me. The more energy you have on set, the better you'll be; it's all about being alive in that moment and listening.”
