My nursery school did a production of 'The Three Little Pigs.' I played the third pig. When the wolf knocked on my door, I refused to get up and answer it because, to me, he was knocking the wrong way. I just lay there, snoring away on stage, fully immersed in my character. My dad turned to my mom and said: 'Dustin Hoffman.'

Modern recording has made it so that people can spend forever taking shortcuts and making everything uniform, but that strips music of what makes it exciting.

I think comedy's just about being interested in comedy and what makes people laugh and experimenting.

I think making a movie or a record, the best things happen by accident - and those end up being the magic. Every time I've followed my gut it's been better than when I've tried to do what I was supposed to do.

We all know guys who've had their hearts broken in real life we just don't usually see it in the movies.

I can't go on Gawker. I actually think the writing is really funny, but there is a chance that somebody is undercutting me.
