Originally I Considered Myself A Singer.

I Can't Stand Films That Make The Kids Out To Be Heroes And The Parents To Be Imbeciles.

My Parents Always Raised Us With The Idea Of Having College In Mind. You Sort Of Need A College Education. It's Part Of Life. It's Something That You Do - Like Going To Your Prom.

Jazz Is My Comfort Music, Like Comfort Food.

I Never Felt Terribly Comfortable In The Public Eye.

I Think Once You Sort Of Cross Over And You Realize What Books Can Be - And If They Mean Something To You - There's Just No Stopping You.
