I go straight for Seinfeld, Modern Family, Friends, and Golden Girls. Those are my pillars of strength on TV.

I think that's my hope for a lot of the feminist movement is that the gender thing sort of stops being the selling point, if that makes any sense. We're just people making art, and that's how this process has felt to me.
Sara Bareilles
Jump start my kaleidoscope heart, Love to watch the colors fade, They may not make sense, But they sure as hell made me.

It's so easy to just rip someone's work apart.

I have been influenced by many different artists at many different stages of my life. Starting out, it was people like Elton John, Billy Joel, Ben Folds, and Fiona Apple. As I got older I got deeper into the work of bands like the Beatles, artists like Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Etta James, and Joni Mitchell.

I have been very fortunate to be a part of tours with other artists that have exposed me to new places that I've never been before. Once you discover something beautiful, you just want to keep coming back.

The theater community at large, I have to say, has just been so warm and so welcoming, and that's not something I'm as used to.

I do a lot of reading on Buddhist philosophy, and a Buddhist nun named Pema Chödrön talks a lot about acceptance. It's one of the main tenets of Buddhism - accepting that what is, is. The root of our suffering is when we just don't want to accept a truth. We want something to be different than it is.
Sara Bareilles
You can be the outcast or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love. Or you can start speaking up.
Sara Bareilles
True bravery is being exactly who you are, imperfections included. Vulnerability is the most precious gift you can give.

I never played coffee shops I just played a lot of coffee shop-sized venues. I took every venue I could get my hands on.
Sara Bareilles
I've dabbled in running around on stage, and at certain times it's nice to step away from the anchor of the piano and use a handheld microphone and connect with the audience, but I think my soul as a performer is just a little bit more connected to the instrument. To just sort of sit and sing - that feels like the most natural fit for me.
Sara Bareilles
I love the morning time - a cup of coffee and to sit at the piano, that's probably my favorite time.
Sara Bareilles
I got really into rock - soft, romantic rock was my jam.
Sara Bareilles
If you take your fear and mash it into something that's actually useful, then it doesn't feel like it wins.
