Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite revolutionaries. He spoke from his heart, his mind. That's what I want to do.

When people are going on to the next plateau of whatever this thing is called life, I also want them to breathe easily, even if it's the last one they take here with us. I guess I'm the welcoming committee and ushering committee.
