I've felt emotions onstage that I never felt before; it has strengthened me as a person and as an artist.

I have great emotion every time I go on stage. Nothing in life gives me the same satisfaction that my profession gives me.

When you were on stage, you could be absolutely open about your emotions and indulge them and express yourself in a way that - in real life - I wasn't doing.

On stage, you can use your emotions. It's the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose.

At times in my life the only place I have been happy is when I am on stage.

I feel completely fearless when I'm on stage. And also totally fearful. There's the fear that I'm not making a very smart career move sometimes, but there's the stronger belief that these things need to be said.

Being on stage makes me come to life. When all eyes are on you, they're watching every move you make.

I love being on stage. I'm completely, totally relaxed. It's the only time in my life when I know where I am and what's coming next. The other Robert Powell is probably fairly melancholic. Let's just say happiness isn't my default position. There are dark parts. I'm very good at it. I frighten people sometimes.

I used to be more involved with every aspect of everything onstage. I'm way more relaxed now. It feels like anything can happen.

I feel like I have a job to do, like I constantly have to reinvent myself. The more I up the ante for myself, the better it is in the long run. I try to interact with my fans as much as possible. It's good that the person I'm being onstage isn't really an act. It's really me.
