Deep down am I superstitious? No. Do I believe in trying to be as kind as possible and as compassionate as possible because ultimately you're alone with yourself and your own conscience, and you want that to be as clear as possible?

There is something about Chicago that keeps people centered and grounded.

I've been, I think, able to stay grounded in such a crazy business, and I attribute that a lot to my family, and especially to my mother.
