As a sports fan, the Los Angeles Kings winning the Stanley Cup makes me feel very alive.

I'm a family guy. A lot of my songs are inspired by my kids. Simple relationships. Watching them grow up, watching them share experiences with me and vice versa.

We all have our fears, our insecurities. I'm not different from anyone else.

The most rewarding thing of my success has been the ability to use my music for many different causes that have become important to me.

Usually it is a painful process (writing), "Superman" came in 45 minutes; "100 Years" in four months.

If prolific is writing a lot of songs, I'm that. If it's writing a lot of good songs, I'm something else.

I've learned that love takes priority.

I was able to truly immerse myself in the record-making process. I'm excited about music.

In so many of my songs, I'm trying to touch on various aspects of love.

Once you have kids and you're married, it's all about them. My life changed. You can see in my records.

As a songwriter, I think that comes with the territory. The older you get, you like to say it doesn't matter, but you care what people think about what you do.

Complicated things CHALLENGE us most, HURTS us most, and there, we LEARN the most.

Understanding your employee's perspective can go a long way towards increasing productivity and happiness.

It is impossible that happiness, and yearning for what is not present, should ever be united.

I like playing in other projects.

I think, you know, a lot of the business of comedy is taking your personal experiences and making them relatable to other people.

It is not the office of art to spotlight alternatives, but to resist by its form alone the course of the world, which permanently puts a pistol to men's heads.

Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie, Which we ascribe to Heaven.
