I am not so secretly a comedian. I write a lot of my own material if you've seen videos I've done. I write jokes.

Don't wait for people to tell you who you are. Show them.

I think it's good to have an old fashioned musical as well as new musicals. There's a lot of room for different shows.

I didn't love stickers and unicorns and stuff, but just if I were to ride on the back of a beast to work, I want it to be a frickin' unicorn.

I learned to stop saying yes because I then have to back out. I've been trying to prioritize my health.

I think there's that weird bastardization where musical theatre actors are treated as almost like vaudevillians or circus performers - that we're somehow not good actors because we sing and dance.

Being in front of a live audience again. I get that in my concerts but there's nothing like being on Broadway.

I'm not a big weird eater-of-things. I mean honestly I would say like for me, like escargot or sweetbreads is the weirdest thing I've eaten. But I haven't eaten like bugs or... not that I know of.

I try to give the appearance that I have it all together and that I know what I'm talking about, but at the end of the day, I think I might be full of crap.

My biggest influence is someone I really don't know at all: Tina Fey. Smart, funny, beautiful, self-deprecating, also a mom and a wife.

I haven't been trying to be anything other than myself.

Highlighting strengths increases sales.

Coding is other type of magic!

Through a strange kind of geographic arrogance, Europeans like to think that the world was a silent, dark, unknown place until they trooped out and discovered it.

I get skinnier if I'm very busy.

You cannot make a miracle like love happen.

When I had my first experiences of choral singing, the dissonance of those close harmonies was so exquisite that I would giggle or I would tear up, and I felt it in a physical way.

Purity is receptivity, the ability to sit and wait patiently, for as long as necessary, for the coming of the light.

We all hope that the police and prosecutors are objective. That's their job, but sometimes it's not true.

I believe that in spite of the chains we bind ourselves with, there's a primordial section of the human psyche that is still nomadic and still yearns to roam free.

I have a job to do, I have a wife and child to take care of. So I don't pay attention to things that I don't know anything about. I've got my own situation to deal with.
