The reason I didn't like cocaine is it made me do stupid things, have stupid conversations, and stay awake until 11 o'clock in the morning unable to think, read, sleep or speak.

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.

I think there is a guy called Michael. It looks as though he’s got a talent. He will make his way to F1.

Something deep within me connected with hard work, nature and simplicity.

I don't choose my projects based on genre, I choose them based on the role and whether or not I've tackled that yet, based on the director and such.
