“I think that the only goals that we try to set for ourselves is to evolve musically.”

“As a person, I think you're always kind of searching for something or going through a hardship, whether it's your parents splitting up or anything like that. I mean, my parents stuck together, for whatever reason, until I was about 23, and then they decided to call it quits.”

“It became apparent to me near the end of the album cycle for 'House Of Gold & Bones' that it had basically run its course. But the band kept pushing for more dates, and I was just, like, 'It's time to stop!'”

“Everything happens the way it's supposed to because it's just like cavemen - you evolve and grow and learn.”

“I know where I am headed and how will I evolve. There's nothing stopping you. I don't have a family background on films, and I will need to work for it.”

“We have people in our lives who help us evolve along the way. If you're lucky, you find someone who evolves along with you, and that's what you call a long-term relationship.”
