It's not my goal to be a famous actor.

My dad didn't want me to play guitar. He played piano, so I chose that. And I ended up loving it

I happen to be a guy who also plays the piano and sings, so people automatically associate me with Billy Joel.

You can be a singer, and you can be a guitar player, but putting them together is another animal.

I'm like a junkie for writing.

I am the byproduct of an Ellis Island orgy, basically. I'm everything. I've got quite a mixture in me. I know a lot of it and I don't know some of it. I'm pretty mixed up, but mostly Russian and Irish.

So if I was dating somebody now and the relationship didn't work out, I'd take that as failing
