I grew up with lots of animals and I related more to them than I did to people. I feel a lot of empathy for them.

I like driving. I'm a real sucker for driving across North America - I never get sick of it, ever.

I was raised to be modest to the point of fanaticism. In my family, we don't talk about ourselves to each other. Vanity is considered the worst possible sin. I've gotten better about having to describe things. If you're going to make a record and people are going to write about you, it's your responsibility to answer questions. It's validating - I'm just very clumsy.

I would be a huge hypocrite if I didn't tell you that at one time in my life I thought the way that you made music was you got on a major label and you got famous.

Every band wants to go believe me, not everybody makes it, but they want to.
