 | | Frazier: Well, I was kind of groomed for it because, growing up, I was the oldest of nine kids, and I was always sort of precocious, in that respect. |

 | | Frazier: I used to get the Sunday New York Times, the Arts and Leisure section, and I used to love the words when they critique plays, or whatever: "riveting," "mesmerizing," "provocative," "profound." And I used to write them down, in notebooks and note how they were utilized in a sentence. |
