There's really no reason for any musician, writer, actor to ever take themselves seriously. If you work in a needle exchange, take yourself seriously. You're doing good work. If you're involved in hostage negotiations and saving lives, you can have a sense of entitlement.

The most emotional part is when I go into my studio every day and pretty much never have an idea of what's gonna happen.

Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.

Never have public feuds with anyone who's surrounded by people who carry guns.

Sacha Baron Cohen is one of my heroes.

In an odd way, Donald Trump and maybe Brexit is gonna be great for inspiring a new wave of socially conscious political music.

Whether the Virgin Mary existed, I don't know. But the human need for her to appear in tortilla, that's what inspires my interest.
