I think fame is one of those things where you have a window of opportunity and you have a certain amount of trust from the fans and without that you don't have a career.

I base all my characters on hair.

The best part about being married is feeling centered. Nothing else matters so much as long as you can come home and be with your family.

I was 17 when I left the small Maine town where I'd grown up. I wanted to do something I thought was important with my life, so I headed to California and didn't look back.

A wedding is like a funeral, but with musicians.

I don't necessarily want to direct because it's too much work and I don't have the attention span to stay with it that long. But I think getting everyone together on something that appeals to me and developing the material is something that I like to do.

One day my 3-year-old daughter said 'Your very handsome, Poppy.' That was the best compliment ever.
