“Music and time have such an interesting relationship. Music makes time fall away like almost nothing else. You hear a song from another moment of your life and it really is like you're still there. That's why the music of our youth ends up being particularly powerful. The coming of age music that you grab a hold of as the symbol or the expression of your independence and hopes for the future and anger and rebellion or whatever it is you're feeling is so powerful for the rest of your life when you hear it.” StillsEndsMomentsFeelingsAgeSongFallInterestingPowerfulYouthExpressionLike YouIndependenceSymbolsRebellionComing Of AgeRest Of Your LifeMaking TimeHope For The Future Author:Jennifer Egan

“We did monologues and scenes, and New York I did a scene from Amadeus and a monologue from Pounding Nails in the Floor With My Forehead by Eric Bogosian, and then in L.A. I switched the scene to This is Our Youth and did the same monologue. I was spiky-haired, super skinny. A lot of people were like, "You should come here and do a sitcom." That was the feedback that I got. Obviously it was quite a different journey than the one I've actually had, but I just listened to people.” PeopleShouldDifferentJourneyNew YorkYouthLike YouSceneNailsFeedbackSkinnyForeheadsSitcomEricJust ListenMonologuesAmadeus Author:Zachary Quinto
