I think therapy is a helpful thing. I think everyone knows it. You do it for your life, you do it for yourself, because you want to explore some things, and get at the bottom of some things. It's about your life, the quality of your life.

I think good art, if I could be pretentious enough to say, I think good art deals with the micro to explain the macro.

There’s a period of time in your life when I kind of look back, and I’m like, was I happy, or was I just not aware?

I know I wasn't as handsome as some other guys, but I was OK with that.

Sometimes I'm uncomfortable with the level of fame I've got! It all depends on the day and what's going on. I don't desire any more fame. I don't need it.

Ultimately, I think writing is a mixture of craft, inspiration, and being incredibly, courageously explorative with yourself - and being brutally honest, too.

Good work is the only thing that would make me feel jealous or envious.
