“I’m not killing myself auditioning, chasing that dream”

It was a very decadent, very glamorous business that took advantage of a lot of people for a long time and didn’t do things right and had a poor business model.

Normal is enormously susceptible to swinging with the gusts of politics and history.

I want to study marriage. I want to learn about it. I want to know it. I want to figure out whether or not I want to do it. I’m not just going to leap into it, because that’s not good for anybody.

There’s nothing to win in yoga. You just do what you can do, one day to the next.

I was the music dude that was naked all the time with the girls, and that’s fine, no problem with that.

Before I go on stage, I pretend that everyone loves me.

Yoga carves you into a different person – and that is satisfying physically.

Nobody has it all, but for me to even come close is amazing.

Roads taken far away from you are many. Do not fear, Mother; they all lead back.

I was a huge Beatles fan. The Stones, Dylan. Later on, I got into Stevie Wonder, and Bill Withers – he’s one of my heroes. Al Green, too.

When you commit to being a musician, I don’t think you’re really sure or care about when you’re going to pay the bills.

They are easier to write when I am impassioned and angry. It is a good way to channel that negative energy.

I’m feeling like the music business is reaping what it’s sown. It’s going through what inevitably it was going to go through.

If men were just honest with themselves, they would see that they all have that side.

Not every song has to be about love and tenderness, sometimes you have those strictly physical feelings for somebody and it’s okay to have those feelings.

She’s the coolest person in the world…I don’t date what the person does…

And it took me about five years of hit-or-miss auditioning and booking on occasion before I could support myself totally as an actor.

You do see a few people and you are thinking of how that chemistry is going to work, but it’s not really fair to put people who are auditioning together in a room.

I think auditioning can be very reductive and I just hate how actors work really hard and most of them aren’t going to get the job, and I hate putting them through that.

There’s a common misconception with sketch comedy that you just go up there and wing it, but it’s written, and there really is order.

I find auditioning to be a very illusive process, where actors come in with this really big result with no process, so it’s a lie already at work.

I like auditioning! A lot of people hate it, but I like it.
