Yeah, you got the family dog and the white picket fence, and you just think that's all there is.

I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream.

In North America, the greatest threat to the Jewish people is not the external force of antisemitism, but the internal forces of apathy, inertia and ignorance of our own heritage.

We're absolutely American and distinctly so, I think. That's part of what people respond to outside of this country, part of the reason that we're such a huge band outside of the U.S., where we're not so popular now as we were 10 or 12 years ago.
