The Truth Isn't All Things To All

I Didn't Want To Be Driving To Work Everyday And Sending Out My Starbucks Order. I Didn't Want To Be In New York Or L.a. I Wanted To Have Space And I Wanted To Be In A Remote Place Where All Of Us Could Just Be Ourselves And Not Worry About Anyone Trying To Listen In Or Get In On That. I Wanted To Just Be Comfortable. I Feel Like Being In A Big City - As Much As I Find New York, In Particular, Very Inspiring In A Lot Of Ways - Can Also Be Claustrophobic.

For Me, Collaborating Is A Marriage Of The Minds. It's Two Or More People Coming Together And Making An Idea Come Alive. Using Their Own Creative Knowledge Or Creative Spirit To Make The Best Version Of An Idea. To Inspire An Idea And To Challenge It To Be Better Than Just One Person's Vision For It.

I'd Rather Be Really Good At Something Or Not Do It At All.

I Think You Have To Protect Your Private Life As Much As You Possibly Can, And, At The Same Time, Find Ways To Redirect That Focus And Turn The Glare Into A Positive Thing. I Don't Know How You Do It. I Don't Know How Anybody's Ever Done It.

My Grandmother Was Also An Active Member Of The Tenants Association And A Staunch Supporter Of The Democratic Party, And Both Of My Parents Were Extremely Liberal, So I Think I Grew Up In A Household That Was Very Politically Conscious - We All Watched The Elections On Tv, And We Watched The Debates. So It Was An Awareness That We Were Raised With, And As We Grew Into Young Adults, We Just Naturally Became Politically Active. It Was Just Understood That It Was Important, That It Was Our Responsibility.
