The Public Is A Monster

I Belong To The Givers. I Want To Give A Little Happiness Even If I Haven’t Had Much For Myself. Music Has Enriched My Life And, Hopefully - Through Me, A Little - The Public’s. If Anyone Left An Opera House Feeling More Happy And At Peace, I Achieved My Purpose.

The Public Is A Monster And That Is Why I Am Not Eager To Return To The Stage.

I Prepare Myself For Rehearsals Like I Would For Marriage.

I Cannot Switch My Voice. My Voice Is Not Like An Elevator Going Up And Down.

If I Have Stepped On Some People At Times Because I Am At The Top, It Couldn't Be Helped. What Should I Do If Someone Gets Hurt... Retire?
