One man is not an orchestra.
Who needs orchestras? You can do it all with a keyboard, an amp and enough power.
You going to play all by yourself?
You don't need anybody else.
That's not music, Martelli. That's masturbation.

Fame! I'm gonna live forever/ I'm gonna learn how to fly (high!)/ I feel it coming together/ People will see me and cry!
Graduating from PA is no Academy Award, if you know what I mean. Look, it is better than real school. Like, its free and you don't get raped in the hallways; but, its still small change. I'm just killin' time here. Waitin' for my opportunity. Might be in a movie or a Broadway musical. But, it's comin'! I keep my eyes open. I read "Backstage", "Show Business" and "Variety". You see, I do the whole thing. Dancing's just the tip of this iceberg. A friend of my sister's, she tells fortunes and stuff. She says I'm doing my last dance on this dark little planet. So, its gotta be spectacular, you know. How bright our spirits go shooting out into space, depends on how much we contributed to the earthly brilliance of this world. And I mean to be a major contributor!
I HATE Ralph Garci! I must remember this feeling and use it in my acting!
I'm about as flamboyant as a bagel.
I'm always worried maybe people aren't going to like me when I go to a party. Isn't that crazy? Do you ever get a kind of a sick feeling in the pit of your stomach when you dread things? Gee, I wouldn't want to miss a party for anything, but, every time I go to one, I keep feeling like the whole world's against me.
I's young, I's single, and I loves to mingle!
Never being happy isn't the same as being unhappy. Is it?
Remember. Remember. Remember my name.
