I've learned that nobody is either all good or all evil. We all make mistakes, but we all are also capable of accomplishing extraordinary things.

Wearing a monkey suit really lets you know where you stand as an actor.

Love is hearing my son laugh.

Being barefoot makes me feel vulnerable.

I am a musical-theater nut. When the lyrics, orchestration, and performance all come together just right, I come alive and can feel every cell in my body.

We are all connected in love.

I love every aspect of the performing arts and can't imagine myself doing anything different. I give my heart to every project.

I was a cheerleader growing up, so I can relate to that!

I like to make people laugh, and I definitely think laughter is healing. It's one of my favorite thing to do, so I'm attracted to it for many reasons.

I love the show tunes; I love all of them.

I'd like to travel around, be an international playboy. They have all that money; they could really do it right. Look at (Errol) Flynn.

I believe that a man is converted when first he hears the low, vast murmur of life, of human life, troubling his hitherto unconscious self.

No two men are just alike. Every new life is a new thing under the sun; there has never been anything like it before, and never will be again.

He was saying that the end of the world wasn't an accident; it was a joke.

I think that all writers feel alienated. ... I know that I do. ... I still feel, as I think most creative people do, absolutely isolated.

That is the principal thing-not to remain with the dream, with the intention, with the being-in-the-mood, but always forcibly to convert it all into things.

On my gravestone, I want it to say, "I told you I was sick."

There's only two kinds of music: the blues and zippety doo-dah.
