Who doesn't love Game of Thrones? Sons of Anarchy is funny and thug-ish. I love Shameless. I just sit with my hat tipped, waiting for something to happen, more than going out after the shows.

I quite like Low, the band from Minnesota. They're absolutely mesmerizing. I get much the same feeling from anything that Will Oldham does.

If you just keep your head down and just try and do your thing, sometimes magic happens.

I love playing live, I don't like studios all that much. I need the reaction of the audience.

I'm not a workaholic, but I was a bit manic, I have to confess.

I don't know any musician who got to the top without hard work. Take whoever you want. They all work bloody hard, harder than you think.

I have always been fascinated by dark and mysterious stuff. I guess I have a pretty dark and gloomy side. Writing songs saves me from going completely gonzo.

The only people who benefit from lawsuits are lawyers. I think we made a couple of them rich.

I was thinking: Girls get scared way too often. Girls get stupidly scared. I was not scared.Telling myself not to be scared kind of worked.

I want to continue to do music and stay on the stage because I love the stage. And I want to continue to write songs.

Well, I haven't been doing that much work with other people per se. I started doing more of that.

I was having such a hard time when I made Sylvia. I gave everything I had for that role. It's one or two or three things I'm most proud of in terms of my work. But it was very dark.

To execute a vision, good or bad, you've got to tune out the noise.

Every poem that I write is, in a sense, trying to find adequate words for this unspeakable word, around which my entire life turns.

The fraudster's greatest liability is the certainty that the fraud is too clever to be detected.

I'm someone who believes the truth needs to be heard. And if I'm empowered with the truth, I'm not going to shut up.

The point of jazz is, you do something and then you go on.
