I feel like I've passed through a certain door in my life and that I'm standing in a different room now.

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away.

I am learning. I'm a slow learner. I repeat myself three times, relationship wise.

I hate how I've had the mantle set on my shoulders as being against the record label. We've had some issues, but that is the nature of business.

I pride myself on finding balance. I love making music and I love raising my boys - I find time to make both a priority.

Steve McQueen was from a time when you didn't know every little dirty thing about our public figures. He and James Dean were very mysterious, archetypal American heroes.

I have a philosophy that everything you write doesn't have to be good for everybody. There are going to be people that get irritated by some of the things I write-including my parents. And then there are going to be people that you draw in because of the pointedness of certain things.
