I lived in Texas for 10 years. There were a lot of people chewing, including my dad.

I don't think there are in life, pure darkness or pure light. Everyone's got a little of everything.

My fear now is of cliche, of complacency, of not being able to feel authenticity in myself and those around me.

I do all kinds of roles - nerd, psycho, nerd, psycho, nerd, psycho - and occasionally someone kind of normal. It's weird, when I lived in Austin I was always cast as pretty normal people. But when I moved to Los Angeles I was immediately branded a psycho

Even the small amount of infamy I have makes me uncomfortable - on a personal level and on a professional level.

I've never had any delusions about being a leading man, and it's not sour grapes to say that in the best films that I've always enjoyed, the cliched leading man type isn't a part of the picture.

It's tough being an actor making music, because even I have a knee-jerk reaction to that.
