I've long wanted to FIND a charitable cause to really GET involved with and be PASSIONATE about. I get invited to a lot of charity events to SING, and I am happy to help and bring a SOURCE of entertainment, but I'm sort of disconnected from them.

I admire a lot of photographers, but I feel very disconnected from them at the same time. I don't feel I employ any TECHNIQUE like these people in my WORK. I guess if there's any INFLUENCE from any of these photographers, it's this: They were CONCERNED only with beauty. Not with 'cool.' I hope I'm doing the same.

Black people are on earth for one purpose: to DESTROY, and not to BUILD. The reason: It's not in them to show respect to anyone - they don't have love. They don't have GOD. They're ANGRY at their mothers and disconnected from their fathers. They call good EVIL and evil good.

It's difficult to describe the weirdness of speaking to a MAN who appears to be perfectly in control of his faculties, who can DELIVER off-the-cuff REPARTEE, and yet who is actually UTTERLY disconnected from who he is.

I am somebody who feels that we're all FABULOUS, EVERY HUMAN being, and I think when we do THINGS that aren't so fabulous, we are disconnected from who we really are.

If the goal is to LOWER emissions, that's disconnected to most people. If the goal is to save taxpayers' MONEY, now the public has some INTEREST.

I think we have got to do a BETTER job explaining to people why their VOTE does COUNT. I think people feel disconnected from some of their elected officials, as well as the SYSTEM, because, sometimes, it is very COMPLICATED.

In 2004, when I started recording my FIRST CD, I was COMING right out of yeshiva. So I had spent TWO years completely immersed in the Hasidic culture, disconnected completely from the secular world - MOVIES, music, people.

Initially, I had started doing THEATER, where the actor has a direct relationship to the audience. So, moving into FILM and television disconnected me. When you do a film, you start to get the character, and then it DISAPPEARS for a year before it's released and you get FEEDBACK.
