We've been together since we've been teenagers. I can go away and disappear for two years, and when we get back together, it's like nothing ever has changed.

A good mustache makes a man for many reasons.

My mustache has become this weird iconic representation of a certain era.

You don't want to pitch a tent and live inside the Louvre. You want to check it out, appreciate it, and move somewhere else.

Swimming upstream in the music business is a hard thing to do.

I'd like to do something with the Avett Brothers.

I have a great family, I live an amazing life.

I couldn't wait to grow a mustache. I stopped shaving my upper lip the day I graduated from high school.

Sometimes, it's just great to bring new people into the mix.

You have to know when to strike and when to retreat.

The first record I bought myself could have been 'Oh Lonesome Me' by Don Gibson or 'Wake Up Little Susie' by the Everly Brothers.

You don't have to stop thinking and asking questions to believe in God, child. If He'd wanted a flock of eight billion sheep, He wouldn't have given us opposable thumbs, much less free will.

Every good story needs a good, bad and lost soul. A people to fight for, an item to turn the tide of battle, an enigmatic character, a motivator/mentor, and an unlikely reluctant hero.

The secret of living is to find a pivot the pivot of a concept on which you can make your stand.

I have a couple freeloader friends, but it's okay. I know they're gonna come in with their arms flying in the air empty-handed.

Despite what I do for a living, I am very insecure about my body.

I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer.

I was pretty awkward when I was young, but I was never afraid of putting myself out there. I would say stupid things but then they would laugh at me and possibly find it endearing.

It's the same at a rock-and-roll concert. You have an opening number with a strong entrance; then you go through a lot of the old standards, building up to your hit song at the end.

None of us know where our stories come from. That's why writers make fun of people who ask us where we get our ideas... because we don't know.
