I basically started performing for my mother, going, 'Love me!' What drives you to perform is the need for that primal connection. When I was little, my mother was funny with me, and I started to be charming and funny for her, and I learned that by being entertaining, you make a connection with another person.

Truth, I have learned, differs for everybody. Just as no two people ever see a rainbow in exactly the same place-and yet both most certainly see it, while the person seemingly standing right underneath it does not see it at all-so truth is a question of where one stands, and the direction one is looking in at the time.
Iain Banks
A pamphlet, no matter how good, is never read more than once, but a song is learned by heart and repeated over and over. And I maintain that if a person can put a few common sense facts into a song and dress them up in a cloak of humor, he will succeed in reaching a great number of workers who are too unintelligent or too indifferent to read.
