I never look at myself as a closet actor wanting to make music or a closet musician wanting to act — I’m very proud to do both and I don’t put one above the other, I’m very grateful and excited by both opportunities — it’s really a unique opportunity to do both.

Labels are for cans, not for people.

I mean, if I'm going to the Oscars or something, yes, there are people that are contributing and I'll tell them what I don't like or whatever. I know what I don't like.

Music is subjective to everyone's unique experience.

I was raised around a lot of artists, musicians, photographers, painters and people that were in theater. Just having the art-communal hippie experience as a child, there wasn't a clear line that was drawn. We celebrated creative experience and creative expression. We didn't try and curtail it and stunt any of that kind of growth.

Happiness is like the weather. Sometimes it’s rainy, sometimes it’s sunny, and you gotta just go through and accept what’s there in front of you.

I don't care if someone remembered me. Life is for living and memories for those who we leave behind.
