My dad could hold a tune. He wasn't necessarily a singer, but he did love music, and he listened to it quite loud in the car.

For me, the more time you can take and the more care you can take with songs, the better off you're going to be.

I like to fish. I collect pocketknives. I inherited a nice collection from my father and grandfather.

It's man's work. My dad was gone at 4:30 in the morning and home at 8 at night, and he worked underground, and the last mine he worked in was 26 inches high in a lot of places. He liked the engineering of it - he liked the moving the earth and being able to extract something and put it back for reclamation. He enjoyed the whole process.

Maybe I'm ego-tripping, but I don't find myself a particularly horrible person, so I don't think I need to hold back anything I think or feel.

I have this theory that I hold on to, the theory that everything great in art and in life in general is jazz. It's just like all these things that just kind of seem to fall into place. You know, like mistakes that somehow turn into something beautiful.

Never reveal all of yourself to other people; hold back something in reserve so that people are never quite sure if they really know you.

I am tough on myself. It's just how I am. I hold myself to a standard.

I hold myself to a high standard.
