The guys in high school were like, "You've got a nice voice; you should keep singing," but I never honestly thought that one day I'd be a singer. When you're young, you don't see the signs.

In general, I think I'm a very private person. But I also love human beings.

My hair is a wild, untamable beast! I like letting it grow; my bangs grow whatever way they want and I kind of follow their rule. So side bangs, poof bangs - it's kind of unpredictable.

People who create art would be fools to assume they know exactly what people are going to think of it.

I'm a Gemini, so I'm very dual. I love something and I hate it at the same time, so that probably comes out in the lyrics.

As you get older you realise that nothing lasts forever. It's not depressing, but it does make moments more intense.

I think the Yamaha has a giant quality. When you combine the Yamaha with other organs, you get this crazy rectangular sound. It's kind of flat and thick.

Sound is a very unruly thing, and you have to really respect that it's going to differ every time you play.

I personally do not listen to a lot of music. It helps keep my mind free. I don't want to sound like someone else from the get-go. I want to express myself and the world in my head.

Sometimes people talk about music, whether blogs or magazines, in a strange way where it doesn't seem like they're actually listening to it.

Yeah, it's a lot harder to find a musical partner than a love partner.

Fly, dotard, fly! With thy wise dreams and fables of the sky.

I believe I never knew what the word round meant until I saw Earth from space.

I did important films when I was very young.

Oooh, fashion, we are the goon squad and were coming to town, beep beep.

We look our best in subdued colors, sophisticated cuts, and a general air of sleek understatement.

I'd say that kids working on sets, even if it's Bambi, need to be allowed to be kids, even if they're working, not become little adults - that to me can be distorting to kids as an experience.

Technology should do the hard work so people can do the things that make them the happiest in life.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love ... then make that day count!

This place of mine never is entered by humans come for conversation, only by the mute moon's light shafts that slip in between the trees.

Men practice war; beasts do not.
