I don't know a single person in life that doesn't have conflict. I don't really enjoy acting enough to not want to experience something that feels like it really affects things. It's like, if you were a surfer, would you want to surf where there was like two-foot waves, or would you want to surf on like ten-foot waves. To me, the more kind of dramatic stories are more exciting for me, to play with.

I'd see child actors and I'd get so jealous, because they're just completely wide open.

I don't bring my life into a character at all.

The expectation is this low, gravelly voice for John, but I went through his early recordings and there were songs in there where the voice was so different, I wasn't even sure if it was him singing, ... So it was interesting to me that we would see him develop the Man in Black sound. I thought it was really important that his voice change as his persona slowly solidified. The music was really the doorway into the character.

I just I don't feel challenged by acting anymore. I don't enjoy the process anymore.

I'm vomiting days before I start shooting a new movie.

I would try and sing along with bands that I like but it sounded so atrocious that I couldn't.
