I'm a very slow reader, and books of interviews are an absolute favorite of mine.

When my first daughter was born, I had to figure out a new way of [making music] so that I wouldn't wake her up.

There's all these ways to instantly communicate - cars, computers, telephone and transportation - and even with all that, it's so hard to find people and have an honest communication with them.

I love the idea of playing a character that didn't over think everything. He knows what's in front of him and he has an ability to just say whatever he felt.

What I love about lyrics is that they don't have to be very complicated. A good sentence over a great chord with a good melody - all you need is that one moment.

Making a movie is a weird combination of planning and the absolutely unexpected.

Also, the more you're not focused on showbiz and instead focused on life, learning about other people, and keeping your eyes open and trying to be aware of the world.
