Throughout my career, if I have done anything, I have paid attention to every note and every word I sing - if I respect the song. If I cannot project this to a listener, I fail.

I'm not really a career person; I'm a gardener, basically.

A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.

A career is born in public-talent in privacy.

If you don't encounter setbacks in your career, if you don't have doubts and disappointments, let me tell you, you're not dreaming big enough.

As your career grows, the list of things that makes you happy should not become smaller, it should become bigger.
