What's great about music is it takes so many kinds of people, including me. Everybody is in a different place.

I tend to eat what I want, which probably isn't good.

I'm not a wild and crazy person.

I love playing big rooms. There's nothing like it. It's a power trip.

I find you get out of people what you put into them.

If I'm a phenomenon, it makes me feel like I have no purpose.

I have a sneaking suspicion that all religions lead to the same place, a very unified place.

Writing is a really good first step toward that goal of knowing yourself.

On my own I generally have very messy hair, wear jeans and sneakers.

The writers I respect the most had an undying commitment to a vision.

I'm fairly specific about what I like to wear and looks are important to me, just like they are to everybody.

I don't see the world unless I see it in ink.

I've been performing on stage since I was six years old.

I have good stamina and good endurance.

Due process gives teachers the latitude to use their professional judgment in their classrooms, to advocate for their students, and to not fear retribution for speaking the truth or teaching controversial subjects like evolution.

Pride is holding your head up when everyone around you has theirs bowed. Courage is what makes you do it.

My agent asked if I fancied Robin Hood and I thought: 'Yeah, why not?' I hadn't watched it, to be honest, but I'd seen bits and knew it was really popular Saturday family viewing with heaps of action. I thought it would be great fun.
