I think what a big part of 30 Seconds to Mars is, it's not only music, it's not only art, it's a community. It's a sense of having a place to belong. And not everybody will understand it, and that's ok, it's just for the people that do.

If you are willing to walk the path of a dreamer, then anything is possibly.

Teens are always shown as one dimensional. They're stereotyped. When I was in high school, I cared about more than getting a date or making the team.

I thought it would be a great opportunity to work with someone that I really like and really respect as an artist [like Alessandro Michele].

I'd prefer 1,000 followers, friends, and fans that actually meant something, rather than 10 million that weren't engaged.

I think that to explore the uncomfortable and the politically incorrect is the job of the artist.

On the one hand, how many people do you need to love you before you feel OK about yourself?
