I would have been an Egyptologist if I had had the schooling.

Being a songwriter does not rely on an audience or other band members or a camera. I can just sit in a room and write songs.

Every actor wants to break out of the box that they put you in and that's where I'm heading, out of the box as fast as I can.

The first guitar I ever got was for my 13th birthday.

I learned to read and write and socialize in school, and that's pretty much it.

If the timing's right and the gods are with you, something special happens.

I love my life, and I love the people that I'm connected to and I love my family and I love what I do, I'm passionate about performing and being onstage. That and meditating and hugging a dog are the only three times I am absolutely sure I will never get a depressed moment. So if I could go from dog-hugging to meditation to being onstage, I'd be good.
