I am so envious of my colleagues from 100 years ago who only sang new works, they hardly ever sang revivals. ↗

I do everything in the third person. Performance is about being someone else. ↗

I don't want to be somebody who stands still and sings pretty. Each song is a world. Each song is a story. I don't achieve nearly what I want. ↗

I don't want to record anything unless it can be great and genuinely interesting. ↗

I enjoy the more floaty, exposed, elegant singing. ↗

I have had a very difficult time with stage fright; it undermines your well-being and peace of mind, and it can also threaten your livelihood. ↗

I have not changed with the accomplishments. I've remained the same. If I had changed, great. You know, but I haven't. ↗

Everybody's a work in progress. I'm a work in progress. I mean, I've never arrived... I'm still learning all the time. ↗
