I always feel I'm blessed, you know. I thank God for letting me use his voice. That's how I see it.

I've finally learned to love my voice for its uniqueness.

My voice is distinctive: there's a rhythm to it, and also, it's funny. I was just blessed with a funny-sounding voice.

I have had the good fortune of being able to sing with many of the finest voices in the world, and for someone who loves voices as I do, this is an enormous privilege.

I know that I have a voice and can use it for good or bad. It's a gift from God.

I look at my voice and my abilities as a gift. I don't feel that I can even take any credit for it, but it's such a huge presence in my life. It is my life. It's my identity, it's everything. And it's given me a great deal of joy and a sense of purpose - I can't imagine my life without it.

It's the face and the body and the thing that we hide inside that can keep us from the world, but my voice is my voice.

I have to have some of my voice because I have my own experiences that I lived through.

I get my voice from my mother's side of the family. My mother and my grandmother both had strong voices.

I'm used to hearing myself. My own voice.
