But I've always tried to make the best of fear, then, because without fears there's no art.

I am so scared of the sea, so what did I do? Learned to scuba in the Great Barrier Reef.

I used to be a major people pleaser, but that way purgatory lies.

I'm not a singer. I'm a musician, which is different.

You need fear to create, to live.

I've always had stamina. It's a genetic thing. Don't forget, I'm from the era where we played outside, so there was no issue with weight because we were out running around the fields and playing hide and seek.

Our world was Northern, black and white, so it was a great thing for my sisters and me to sit down at Christmastime and watch these fabulous MGM musicals. All that color, all those beautiful costumes.
