I'm not planning to jump off a bridge with no bungee.

I'm not melancholy; I'm a happy-go-lucky person, kind of silly. I like funny things. I have a lot of energy. I tend to like music that's mellow, though.

When something's ending, you go through so many phases, and it can be frustrating. But once you're out on the other side, it's like you can really see all the crazy phases you went through.

I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.

All is fair in love and songwriting.

Don't go chasing after butterflies, when everything you want is right by your side.

If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.

Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.

I love my dad and we have a very good relationship now.

I try to just make music that I love, and if I believe in it that's all that matters.

The people that once bestowed commands, consulships, legions, and allelse, now concerns itself no more, and longs eagerly for just two things: bread and circuses!

Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine.

Every man must be content with that glory which he may have at home.

Above all try something.

I would probably be a teacher if I weren't a comedian.

I've always had life threats, and they've always been for real.

I needed New Orleans so badly back in 2006, just somebody to believe in me, somebody to care about me

Your ethical muscle grows stronger every time you choose right over wrong.

Don't talk about yourself so much...we'll do that when you leave.

It's easy to have a good season but if you want to have a great season you have got to win a major tournament.
