A good friend of mine told me you should take a break and you should go see the world. Go somewhere. That is when I chose to go to Egypt, and so I took this beautiful trip to Egypt. It was the first time ever in my whole life I took three weeks off, and I sailed down the Nile and I saw the tombs and the temples, and I experienced a place that was so magical and so incredibly powerful and intelligent and inspiring.

I'm inspired by many of my friends, colleagues, and the extraordinary people I've been fortunate enough to meet along the way.

I think it's the ego in us that screws us up.

I wouldn't mind being in one place for two months or so. It really doesn't sound so bad!

Simplicity makes me happy.

If I know everything around the situation, all the facts, I feel like I can handle just about anything.

What acting does bring that music doesn't bring for me is the opportunity is the opportunity to be completely different in every way from whom you normally are, the person that you are when you wake up in the morning is who you are in your life. But to take that and have the opportunity to be the complete opposite of that, is the excitement of it.
