Sacha Baron Cohen is one of my heroes.

The good thing about working alone is I get a lot done and I can experiment more. The bad thing is I miss out on the gregarious, social way that most musicians work.

One simple word: ugh. Is something still considered a conspiracy if it's played out right under our noses?

My reason for becoming a vegetarian was simple: I loved (and love) animals

I'm envious of people who can sleep as long as they want. I have the circadian rhythm of a farmer.

The good thing about not being drop-dead gorgeous is that as time passes, I don't have much to worry about. I have friends who are actors and every day they look in the mirror with trepidation.

Could you look an animal in the eyes and say to it, 'My appetite is more important than your suffering'?

I know not all that may be coming, but be it what it will, I'll go to it laughing.

Ignorance is the parent of fear.

Dogs have boundless enthusiasm but no sense of shame. I should have a dog as a life coach.

I like noise. It's always puzzled me why one of the goals of contemporary recording is to get rid of noise and to eliminate any element of a performance.

Star-crossed lovers desperate to get home together. Two hearts beating as one. Romance.

Be gentle, kind and loving to yourself.

One in four of us will have a mental illness at some point. That is a lot of people.

With any kind of artistic thing, it's a muscle, like any athlete, and the moment you're not doing it, you lose all confidence. That's why I'm terrible with down time.

Karate has helped me lots, otherwise I might have got lost in substance abuse or something like the things a lot of other people do.

The biggest risk of all is not taking one.

Look, not everybody plays well with each other on the playground. I get that, that's politics.

He who labours not, cannot enjoy the reward of labour.

If you're playing with the best, you just rise up to that level
