"The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art - and, by analogy, our own experience - more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means."

"For one thing, I teach my students what my teacher for twenty years, Paul Gavert, told me, 'The voice follows... the voice follows everything about you... who you are.'"

"Everything good that I know was taught to me by great teachers and I feel like giving back and sharing the technique is the thing to do."

"I have never experienced racism in the feminist movement, so it concerned me to think that I was unable to see the subject clearly because I came from white, middle-class privilege."

"T Bone is genius. The way they've recorded my voice and the instrumentation to these songs is really quite extraordinary."
