A Quote by Jack Kirby

We all perform our lives in a way. And the actor is a perfect metaphor to get at that theme of "how do we find our authentic selves?"

I try to come on stage and be myself, to sing the way I would in a room by myself, to interact with the audience the way I would relate to them if we were in my kitchen drinking tea and making up silly songs.
