Jay Sherman: Don't worry, son, if you think that only handsome musicians can get beautiful women, I have two words for you: Lyle Lovett. Marty Sherman: I thought that he was handsome. Jay Sherman: You're thinking of Jon Lovitz. With his good looks, he takes the cake!
I started to be really proud of the fact I was gay even though I wasn't
[Jimmy has been auditioning unimpressive musicians all day] Smiths' Song Singer: [singing] I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, but heaven knows I'm miserable now... Jimmy Rabbitte: Yeah, I know how you feel.
Nothing that you do will ever feel good if you let people convince you that you have no choice.
I've gone through stages where I hate my body so much that I won't even wear shorts and a bra in my house because if I pass a mirror, that's the end of my day.
Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel necessary to show because no one else seems to be showing them.
When they say the sky's the limit to me that's really true
When you're surrounded by all these people, it can be lonelier than when you're by yourself. You can be in a huge crowd, but if you don't feel like you can trust anyone or talk to anybody, you feel like you're really alone.

I don't want to give advice to a 19-year-old, because I want a 19-year-old to make mistakes and learn from them. Make mistakes, make mistakes, make mistakes. Just make sure they're your mistakes.
The truth is, anyone who puts so much of herself and her life into art as you do must naturally fear any failure in that art as a potential threat to your life. And so you protect your art more than you protect your health or the common forms of happiness the rest of us have. And you probably have this in common with every artist you admire.
