We're covering all our bases so we can do whatever we want next time. That's how we're looking at it, rather than this just being an endless number of album/tour cycles.

I don't really hang out with anyone. I'll hang out with my band ... but I don't have any friends aside from that.

I was raised up believing I was somehow unique.

The notes sound like they're coming from inside your mind... It was the closest thing to a psychedelic experience I've ever had.

I'm looking forward to doing things more intuitively in the future, just going with whatever happens and not immediately categorizing it as potentially good or bad or original or whatever.

The lyrics to me are a result of the emotional and creative climate present while making the record as well as personally going through a sort of mid-twenties stock-taking.

I think that's becoming more and more of a priority, letting other aspects of life take precedent over making music, or just approaching the whole thing more holistically.

Every time you pick up an instrument, it's not always out of necessity - for a certain kind of person, it's a choice.

You want to think about certain styles of music as being reflective of a certain culture or a certain time or a point of view. You don't want it to be just an intellectual exercise.

I don't know that we're really going to need a label for the things we're thinking about doing next.

Sometimes I do get writer's block but it's more of a writer's doubt - I'll try and write but nothing goes anywhere because I start thinking everything sucks.

Until you won't step into the creepy road, you will never be able to tread a smooth path for yourself.

Our life experiences only teaches us but not break us.

If you reverend God, you shall respect all souls.

The First Amendment only says 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.' It can disrespect all it wants.

I often think about what I want my sons to fully comprehend in regards to how sport industry unfairly operates.

In this world we see nothing but diversity. Everyone thinks separate ideas and wants to develop a separate identity. They fight wars with each other. They destroy each other's identities.

One of the things I want to do that's outside the realm of acting and the arts - although both have their place in this - is ending childhood hunger here in America.

Parents should conduct their arguments in quiet, respectful tones, but in a foreign language. You'd be surprised what an inducement that is to the education of children.

Pretty girls don't have ugly mouths.

I love making observations. That one is a classic example.
