“My tendency as an actor is, when there's a certain energy, I feel a challenge to match it, to come up to that plate and play on the same level.”
“The idea that a musician can submit music online for the chance to have it promoted to a nationwide audience is the American dream come true, and a major step toward democratizing how music is discovered.”
“What is right or duty without power ? To tell a man it is his duty to submit his judgment to the judgment of the church, is like telling a wife it is her duty to love her husband a thing easy to say, but meaning simply nothing. Affection must be won, not commanded.”
“Advertising in the final analysis should be news. If it is not news it is worthless.”
“Love comes in every color, but the fact is... I never needed 50 Shades of Grey, Just turn the lights down low and give me every shade of blackness.”
“Poetry is in itself strength and joy, whether it be crowned by all mankind, or left alone in its own magic hermitage.”

“You've got this piece of wood and some wires, pickups and some strings. How somebody uses that configuration to make something memorable, that's what's interesting to me.”
