I'm happy to feed the illusion that I'm a lazy recluse.

You know some of the people in The Strokes, yeah, their parents had success - but we didn't live like yuppies.

Kids are always honest, 'cause they don't think they're ever going to die.

Making an album can be like being pregnant: you want to pop that thing out and show everybody!

I guess the best thing about marriage is the fact you've got the coolest partner you can imagine by your side for all the things you're going to face in your life. So far, Juliet's been there for me. She's been good for my voice, good for my everything.

I over-think stuff a lot.

The best artists are the ones that work the hardest, and if you work hard enough, you'll eventually experience the happy accidents that are art.
