If someone is talking to you and tells you that you ought to do something, and you can tell they mean it, those are the scary people. Those are the people you want to watch out for.

Usually when you're playing a character, you think a lot about their backstory.

My songs aren't built around choruses or hooks or anything like that. That's kind of how I write screenplays too.

You have to really know what you're saying.

If something really strikes a chord with an audience, if it pops on TV, I don't mind watching it for a few minutes.

I figured I would have to tell someone to kiss my ass before it was all over, and I have -- twice.

I'm not a TV junkie outside of sports and history really and stuff like that.
