I don't give up. I'm a plodder. People come and go, but I stay the course.

I stand up for what I believe. I don't know if it's always paid off for me, because I've been ridiculed and humiliated.

I'm a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life - people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a 'reality.'

I'm not defining my band by other people's music, but by my own.

You just do the things that you love and see if other people can like them too.

I think I just wanted to work when I finally came to Hollywood. That's what it was. I wanted to get a job, and then I wanted to get the second one.

Sometimes it takes a partner to say, "What is it you want?" because I think we operate in life and sometimes we don't know. We're all in some kind of maze going after the cheese at the end, and we get it and we go, "What is it that we want?"
