When I got a networking event, I don’t see a crowd of strangers—I see an admiring audience waiting for me to perform so they can applaud me and throw me flowers and business. I always cry as I’m being escorted out, because people today just don...
Written poetry is different. Best thing is to see it in performance first, then read it. Performance is more provocative.
Giving a good performance, giving it all is what it's all about. I love to perform.
I love performing, and I love being in front of people. I love the pressure you get and the pleasure performing brings.
A lot of Irish people perform. They perform in drawing rooms. They sing songs and they play piano.
No, we've been performing our old songs a little differently each performance.

Well, I'm not defining good and bad art, except, that art that appeals to me or repels me is good. Art that bores me is bad.
After all, what is art? Art is the creative process and it goes through all fields. Einstein’s theory of relativity – now that is a work of art! Einstein was more of an artist in physics than on his violin. Art is this: art is the solution of a p...
I like art with a sense of humor. I don't have a huge art education to understand everything. I don't think that means that art has to be watered down to the lowest common denominator, though. I don't think you have to go to college to be able apprec...
