Quote

We didn't start Theocracy because we wanted to be cool like so-and-so and make money. Our songs aren't trendy, and our lyrics hopefully make people think about certain concepts in a new way.

The majority of romantic comedy movies have nothing to do with love, but everything to do with infatuation.

I'm not hugely technical with things, but I guess that the thing I use most is my iPhone, on a practical level.
Matt Smith
Image
A lot of times, people have forgotten about an album by the time it's released, because it leaked three months earlier. Very strange days we live in.

You can eliminate color and still have a painting that works, but you must have drawing, value and design.

I think you can hear the struggles and hear a realness in Theocracy songs, a human element that you don't get from a lot of the typical Christian stuff.
Matt Smith

I think that every artistic venture is a risk, and it has to be that way, so you do as much preparation as you can and make that as thorough as you can possibly make it, until you turn up on set. It's about taking risks, and some might work and some might not, but that's what makes it interesting.

By not speaking you don't get rid of the story, you just open up a silence, which can be just as loud.

I am a terrible sleeper.

I used to love ninja movies. That was my thing.

Image
I am terribly clumsy, so there is a plethora of walking into lamp-posts, falling over, dropping things, and ruining sofas.

Image
My palette contains a warm and cool of each primary, plus four modifiers: Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, Blue-Violet and Phthalo Yellow-Green just mix as I go for each painting.

Read about a few men who wear (or wore) bow ties as an act of defiance, and check out a tie that makes a strong statement. Bow ties are cool.
Matt Smith
Image
Even now, I'm very superstitious, in silly ways. I always put my left boot on first. Or on set, I always tie my bow tie from right to left.
Matt Smith
Image
When I'm painting outdoors, I only have time to think about what I'm saying, not how I'm saying it.

Directing made me realise what I do as an actor that's extraneous, it focuses your mind on story, story, story.

Amy Pond, there's something you'd better understand about me 'cause it's important, and one day your life may depend on it: I am definitely a mad man with a box!
