Quotes
My dad loved the Four Seasons, Neil Diamond. All the oldies. I'm kind of a product of whatever my parents listened to. Like Aretha Franklin. I definitely grew up with all that music.
I think the fascination stemmed from the dichotomy of the artist’s personal values and beliefs, and the fact that he (got) the highest paid commission at that time since the Sistine Chapel ... It was a huge commission, and it was a huge, big deal for this bastion of capitalism, the Seagram Building, and the Four Seasons. And here was Rothko, who was this Latvian immigrant, who was from humble beginnings, and who swore up and down that one should never pay more than 5 dollars for a meal. There’s a good deal of speculation about what Rothko was thinking.
It was definitely a big moment. My ex-coach [Craig Kardon] is from Dallas, and I used to spend a lot of time there practicing at T Bar M and at the Four Seasons. I always felt like I knew a lot of people from Dallas, and I felt like a lot of people were cheering for me. That doesn't happen too often on the tour, unless you're top-five in the world or something.More quotes »
