“Now, music almost feels naked in my mind.”
“Songwriting is kind of like a craft. It's not something that just comes in a dream. You've got to work at it.”
“Growing up, I fantasized about being a rock musician and that somehow it would be really easy. I didn't realize that it's so much work.”
“I'm lucky that a lot of my friends are in the entertainment industry.”
“I like songs and film because you can turn your life into a sort of myth or dream.”
“Being famous is having the power to really implement positive change in the world, and it gives you the power to do what you want. I'm really grateful for it because I can play music and people will listen.”
“For me, songwriting is something I have to do ritually. I don't just wait for inspiration; I try to write a little bit every day.”
“There are only really a few stories to tell in the end, and betrayal and the failure of love is one of those good stories to tell.”
“I'm not that in control of myself that I could be specific about exactly the way I'm doing everything as it happens. I'm just trying my best.”
“It's a bit embarrassing watching myself, but I couldn't get someone else to play me, that would've been stupid.”

“The most important thing in my father's life? World peace. Me and my brother. My mom.”
“I spend my time trying to figure art out. I was brought up to believe that the way one processes information is by making it into art. That's how I live my life.”
“I like music because it's the only invisible art form.”
“There's no single movement out there. It's not like in the '60s, when Revolver came out and that's just it for the next year.”
“I did a record with a producer, and the good producers eat up the budget, so I didn't have any budget left to produce this record. I had to produce it myself.”
