Mandy Patinkin Musical Quotations

Sondheim is the Shakespeare of the musical theater world.

If a movie musical came along and the part was right and somebody wanted me to do it, I would do it in a heartbeat.

I didn't think of myself as a singer. I'm an actor who recites words, and sometimes that happens to be on musical notes.

Actually, the language in Shakespeare is wonderfully musical. You need to hear the music to connect with the words.
