Occasionally it can be a little disappointing to see rock gods in their 60s or 70s up on stage.

Both of my parents are actually music teachers. I think I got to a certain age where I decided I'd rather be a baseball player than a musician. Now, like most kids, I regret it.

As an actor, I think every moment in your life is giving you a new set of tools. You’re constantly absorbing new information that you can put back onto the screen.

I always have my best thoughts on the toilet.

I've never written anything that wasn't somewhat of a collaboration. I don't know how people do it on their own.

I'm always in the elements, it seems like it's pouring rain on me a lot and there's crowds of people pushing me around, and it feels very real. Which is great as a actor, you don't have to come up with too much of it. I'm always amazed.

I don't think you should just do what makes you happy. Do what makes you great. Do what's uncomfortable and scary and hard but pays off in the long run... Let yourself fail... And pick yourself up and fail again. Without that struggle, what is your success anyway?

I think people are surprised when I string two sentences together. But I had a fiercely academic upbringing.
Charlie Day
Image
I'm really into everything. Something I've been asked throughout the years I've done the show is, What kind of music are you into? I find that to be a bizarre question, because it implies there are people out there that are only into one specific kind of music. But I think I, like most people, enjoy a wide variety of music.
