I think people are just creative, and this can be expressed in a number of ways. Bob Dylan and David Bowie create both music and art.

I have been rich, and I have been broke. Some of it is my fault for choosing bad management and making bad investments. But that is life - we all take risks.

I just think my body can't handle it any more. I did try a little drink a while back, and I was actually physically ill. I went into an immediate depression, and felt awful, just dreadful. So that's it. I'm over it now.

When I get intimate with my paintings, it's a real good spiritual thing to get off my chest. Same as playing the instruments is a great release.

I go off into Dublin and two days later I'm spotted walking by the Liffey with a whole bunch of new friends.

I'm terrible with money, absolutely awful. I'm always losing it.

Regina Spektor is great. I can't wait to see what more she's capable of.
