I've raised my girls in a sort of genderless fashion. I mean, I'll take them to get their nails done - I actually love doing that - but I also play ball with them. As a result, my girls are tough and athletic and game for everything.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I don't really find girls to be any more dramatic or delicate than boys; I've known plenty of little boys who've had miserable breakdowns over things... in fact, I was one of them!
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
Golf is good, it means I get some fresh air and exercise, take my mind off work and see some of the landscape of the place I'm visiting.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I have done songs here and there. But I have never scored a film. That is something I would like to do at some point.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
It is really rare to find someone you really, really love and that you want to spend your life with and all that stuff that goes along with being married.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
All the satisfaction I need... comes when I step out onstage and see the people. That's awesome. I love that.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
You hear about these guys having midlife crises - I don't see that happening to me.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
Not everybody gets to record with an orchestra, and not everybody that gets to record with an orchestra gets to write all their own stuff.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I had tons of friends, played ball with my friends on the street, and did the normal things.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
You know, I feel as comfortable in an uncomfortable situation as I do when things are going smoothly.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm really boring, man. Like, I'm really dull. And I think people may think that I have this glamorous, fun lifestyle, but it's pretty dull. But that's what I like.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
There are people who can't stand me, they say, 'God, he makes me sick', or, 'He's creepy', but it doesn't affect me too badly.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm sure that there are reasonable people that had some reasonable projections about the future of New Orleans, but none of those could include not trying to rebuild the city and make it better than it was before.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
There's some things I can't write about, just terrible personal tragedies.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
Well, my dad was the district attorney of New Orleans for about 30 years.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I guess play piano, you know, because that's the thing I started doing when I was a little kid.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I mean these people who work on Broadway, in my opinion, are the most gifted of everyone. I mean they really know how to dance. They really know how to act. They really know how to sing. They know how to perform.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
My dad and mom believed that you do what you have to do in private and don't make a big deal out of it. Just try to help people as much as you can.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
It is jazz music that called me to be a musician and I have always sang the songs that moved me the most.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
Singers, like Frank Sinatra and myself, we interpret the songs that we like. Not unlike a Shakespearean actor that goes back to the greatest words ever written, we go back to the greatest songs and bring about my interpretation of them.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I do the things I like to do. It's sort of a bigger version of having more than one hobby.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm able to sometimes express things even more articulately on the piano than I am with singing.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm having a lot of fun, enjoying my life and trying to raise my children.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I have no doubt that the government of this great nation will work with its people to lead New Orleans and the Gulf Coast back to an enlightened, proud, safe part of the world.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
There are more than 300,000 families in the Gulf region that lost their homes and are waiting for peace of mind. The hurricane exposed the sad reality of poverty in America. We saw, in all its horrific detail, the vulnerabilities of living in inadequate housing and the heartbreak of losing one's home.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I have a big ego, and I'm a confident person, but when it comes down to being a jerk, that doesn't work for me, I tried it... for about ten years.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
The whole 'American Idol' way of looking at things is the antithesis of what I grew up with. There are a whole lot of kids wanting to be famous now, whereas if I'd even mentioned that word to one of my teachers, I would have got into a whole load of trouble.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
When I'm acting, I'm in a different place, singing is the last thing on my mind, and when I'm on stage, there's no acting at all involved, not even presentation, it's just who I am.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm not a movie star. People know me, but they don't necessarily know what they know me for. I get recognised, but it's not like Justin Bieber. It's a nice thing, people are cool.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I used to go to Bourbon Street when I was a kid and there would be club after club after club of people who were around when the music started. I mean these are legendary, maybe not so well known, but legendary musicians.
Quote by -Harry Connick, Jr.
I'm a natural piano player. So all the practicing I do at this point is in my head. If I don't play for a year, my chops aren't going to get any worse. I've spent my time playing scales, and I don't necessarily want to play any faster than I play. So everything I do at this point is more philosophical.
