Quotes From the Show

“I could almost point to a couple instances in my life where the penny dropped, or something shifted, or somebody had some kind of influence that changed the trajectory.”

“I’ve always had the belief that what we want isn’t necessarily what we ought to be.”

“The best thing that happened in this period is that my daughter can’t hang out with her friends. So she wants to learn the piano, so we bought her a piano. In two weeks’ time, the kid has picked up how to play the piano.”
