Maybe I'm old-fashioned. But I remember the beauty and thrill of being moved by Broadway musicals - particularly the endings of shows.

The beauty of a main title is that you establish your main theme and maybe a bit of your secondary theme. You plant the seed that you're going to go water later in the score. And so having that removed just made it so much more difficult.

We say we want to create beauty identity quality singularity. And yet maybe in truth these cities that we have are desired. Maybe their very characterlessness provides the best context for living.

The beauty of voice-over work is that maybe you come in and record once every two weeks for a couple of hours and do a couple episodes a session. It's awesome! You spend an afternoon playing in the booth and there you have it. It doesn't interfere with much.

I'm still figuring out why people would want to look at me. Maybe it's generic beauty but it's weird to be valued for something I was born with.

Beauty lasts five minutes. Maybe longer if you have a good plastic surgeon.

Editing yourself is like an irksome coin toss. You've got to strip yourself of super ego and operate from the id. Maybe I've got my Freud mixed up. It's just hard to trade a beauty shot for the performance with truth and a brightly lit zit.

Celibacy is not just a matter of not having sex. It is a way of admiring a person for their humanity maybe even for their beauty.

So at a time in which the media give the public everything it wants and desires maybe art should adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the public. I myself am very much inclined to take this position.

I hope 'The Voice' has a fifteen-year run don't get me wrong. But I come from nothing and maybe it's the Irish in me but my attitude is always like 'They'll figure me out soon.'
