Every Damn Fool Thing You Do In

Death Is The Beginning Of Something.

People Say That I Could Sing The Phone Book And Make It Sound Good.

I Always Thought My Days Spent In Darkness [as A Child She Had Cataracts And Was Unable To See For Nearly Four Years] Gave Me A Very Special Sensitivity. Much Later, When I Really Wanted To Hear, Really 'see' A Song, I'd Close My Eyes, And When I Wanted To Bring It Out Of The Very Depths Of Myself, Out Of My Guts, Out Of My Belly, When The Song Had To Come From Far Away, I'd Close My Eyes.

Singing Is A Way Of Escaping. It's Another World. I'm No Longer On Earth.

Don't Care What People Say. Don't Give A Damn About Their Laws.
