If you want to do things right, you have to dig deep for that inspiration.

If I'm proud of one thing in my playing, it's being able to slow it down and focus on the melody.

I'm a huge Weezer fan, and 'Pinkerton' is just a crazy, crazy neurotic album.

It's really fun to just get on a bike and just go and, I guess in a way, to be able to leave the tour and not be confined and all that kind of stuff.

When practicing, it's great to break a part down into its different elements, start slowly, and then try to build up the speed until you're playing as fast as you possibly can.

I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartanlike as to put to rout all that was not life.

I just saw the emotion in everything, so I got to feel everything that was going on and that I was viewing, but I couldn't think in terms of structure, which is the whole point of deep focus.

I'm a real goof-ball deep down. It's always been my thing to make people like me.

'Superman/Wonder Woman,' people expected, I guess, a lot of romance, or maybe something that wasn't emotionally deep. Who knows?

I just feel the need as a writer to try something kind of deep and fulfilling.
