I think more influential than Emily Dickinson or Coleridge or Wordsworth on my imagination were

Warner Brothers, Merrie Melodies, and Loony Tunes cartoons.
Billy Collins

I'm tough, I'm pushy, I'm really loud. I used to spend a lot of time thinking about it. But we only have so much brain capacity, so if I'm spending part of my brain thinking about how I'm acting, A, I'm not spending all of my brain doing, and B, I'm not actually in that moment.
Christine Quinn

The Winans have been some of my favorite people, and Marvin certainly has a real anointing when he preaches and sings; he's a great interpreter of my music.

Every society in every period does or doesn't talk about certain topics. We don't discuss money much; it's almost certain that most people don't know how much their colleagues earn. The Victorians, in contrast, were very happy to discuss money. They weren't, however, happy to discuss sex.

Unpredictability means what it means. I don't know how you define it. It is what it is.

I feel like I've been known for having long black hair, so when I took all my extensions out and cut my own hair, it was the most freeing thing, I think, I've ever done. That was my 21st year: I cut my hair, I was doing Broadway; I was living in New York, and I was really having a moment of becoming my individual self, and it was amazing.
Keke Palmer

Before I really knew country music, I listened to pop, and I still do.
Kelsea Ballerini

I like Beyonce's music - some of it, not all of it.
Aretha Franklin

Kudos to people who put themselves forward as the arbiters of taste.

The notion that moving toward renewable energy will kill jobs is an absurdity on its face. The notion that we have to live smaller lifestyles; not have the American way of life or give up the American Dream is just ridiculous. It is the opposite of the case; a new energy paradigm will create opportunity.
