I think everybody's contemplating TV now, because mid-level and high-budget independent films are not being made now.

Acting is playing - it's actually going out on a playground with the other kids and being in the game, and I need that. Writing satisfies that part of myself that longs to sit in my room and dream.

Just the other day, my assistant was on the line with Calvin Klein. Golly, I usually shop at Sears.

These days and times you can't do eclectic records. In the '60s you could, but not anymore.

You have to really know what you're saying.

I believe in running through the rain and crashing into the person you love and having your lips bleed on each other.

Sometimes I have songs born out of stories.
