For art and joy go together, with bold openness, and high head, and ready hand - fearing naught and dreading no exposure.
I learned so much on 'Sicario' and working with that group of actors, where there was the audacity, the confidence, to do nothing.
Don't ever write just for a trend or fad, because it's a moving target, and by the time you get your work out there, the trend or fad is gone. Dig deep; don't be afraid to write fiercely. Expose your heart.
I have never felt inhibited in trying to write as well as the greatest English poets.
I'm hoping to bring some raunchy, risky, soulful frankness to the stage, really.
It's important that I work with people where they know why they're hiring me and that they're looking to create art without fear. Anyone who uses those excuses to not cast people or to create extremely stereotypical characters, they're creating out of fear, and to me that's really boring.
I'm a completely fearless musician.
