In acting, you have a writer, a director, a character - you're working through being another person - and the irony I always tell people is when I acted early on as a teenager, it actually kept me out of trouble.

I never think I have success even when I have it, for better or for worse.

I collect clothes-they keep building and building. I buy them instead of having them washed.

My main objective was finding my individuality as a vocalist.

The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid.

What's exciting to me is the live show medium itself; it's the last untouchable medium. I don't think it will ever go away. It has gone on from the beginning of time with little performances around a campfire, I'd imagine, like cavemen doing some chants, rhythm, and sounds, beating on things.

I'm always revving the engine. In this industry, there are so many twists and turns. You never have it made.
