I still have all the faith and love for my music and yet I'm still playing places for kids.

I never really expected to win the hearts of the masses.

Although I'm a huge fan of Ben Kweller, I don't think I'd cover one of his songs, simply because there's just so much of my own stuff I wanna do.

To make big steps, you've got to take action yourself and not listen to other people.

Doing interviews can sometimes mess up my head. It makes me feel dirty. It's frustrating how the press recycles a quote to death.

Every song brings back memories, like I remember where I wrote all these songs. 'Universal Heartbeat' was my apartment in New York City. 'My Sister' was at my apartment in Boston. I remember places and I remember what I was thinking when I wrote it.

I have many moods, and there is no objective reality. And I kind of live by that.
