It’s funny; I’m in some ways hopelessly masculine, but I don’t fish, I don’t hunt, I’m not that into sports. I can’t fix a car. I think it’s my point of view and the way I see the world. Corey Stoll Read Quote
I listen to music mostly in the evening. I’ve come to love what is called world music, like the Zimbabwean Oliver Mtukudzi and the Colombian singer Marta Gomez. I also love the Irish folk singer Mary Black. Other favorites include Chet Baker, Eva Cassidy, and Billie Holiday. Jeannette Walls Read Quote
