You Only Live Once, So I Try

When You Play For Ticket-holders, You Are Already Validated. I Have No Sense That I Need To Be Accepted. I'm Already Accepted.

We Live In The Least Ugly Time In History. If You Look At Back When Beethoven Was Writing, Half The Kids Were Dying, Mothers Were Dying At Childbirth, There Were More Wars Going On Then Than There Are Now. People Wrote The Most Beautiful Things During The Ugliest Times.

I Like Working With Kids Because I Enjoy Seeing The Looks On Their Faces And, It's Kind Of Selfish, I Want A Future Audience.

I Hope I Will Always Have The Chance To Play The Violin.

There's Nothing More Frustrating Than Seeing A Conductor Say, 'play Softer,' As They're Waving Their Hands In Huge Gestures.
