I'm incredibly close to my family. I have two younger brothers; they're both artists and actors, and their work and the way they see the world inspires me.

Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don't let somebody else tell you who you are.

Have fun, be yourself, enjoy life and stay positive.

There's something about music that makes me feel like a different person, that feels like an escape.

It's wild to be seen differently and have more visibility, but it's rewarding.

I love nerdy work. I love writing notes. I try to go back, as much as I can, to feed what happens and why they do what they do.

So much of how you look at yourself in the mirror reflects how you feel about yourself, and how you comport yourself.

I've learned a lot about the limits of what I can do, as an artist, or what I'm willing to do. It's a lot of responsibility to carry a show and to speak to people on different levels.

I was in a Nativity play as a kid. Back then, I played the donkey.

I've worked on shows where the lead actor doesn't know their lines, doesn't care, and it affects everybody - the crew, the director, the other actors. It's definitely a responsibility.

I love people, watching people interact. It's a lot of psychology. We learn about ourselves by watching other people's lives on the screen.

Give out what you most want to come back.

Those who speak only of what they lack end up with little.

Gwen Stefani's style and flow I just love. She is so cool to me!

It is the experience of living that is important, not searching for meaning. We bring meaning by how we love the world.

I bathe in basslines, rinse in riffs, dry in drums

Golf has humbled, humiliated, and just about licked all the great athletes who tried it.

Partial knowledge is more triumphant than complete knowledge; it takes things to be simpler than they are, and so makes its theory more popular and convincing.

But then again, you know, the pimp in TAXI DRIVER has this reason, given the environment he was living in.

The problem is not that you can buy a congressman for $10000 but that you can buy a Washington lawyer for $100000.

I think it's important that all 50 years of rock 'n' roll live in the same place, because it's all connected.
