I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.

Perception determines insanity.

I'm not trying necessarily to become a movie star; that wouldn't be bad but that's not the aim. I'm just trying to do interesting things and go into areas where I've not been before.

The whole having records and selling records and being on TV, that was something that I didn't ever think would be for me. I thought that would be for other people. All I wanted to do was make a living playing the drums.

As a composer I approached the drums differently than a non-composing drummer. I embraced drum machines.

I'm just trying to do things that are interesting for me.

Tattoos don't impress me. For me it's just another awkward part of fame. It's extraordinary - tattoos in basketball and soccer, it's quite extraordinary.
