• I enjoy music that is commercial. I think that in order for music to be heard in a lot of different situations, you have to always consider that.

And the correspondence between them that we have, I mean, she says, "I cannot believe you're not going to say one word." And she writes to Walter White, "I've asked FDR to say one word. Perhaps he will." But he doesn't. And these become very bitter disagreements.
