I wanted to be a professional baseball player.
Even the great bad guys in cinema history, they`re likable.
I think some people are on a mission to die, and I never was.
Even in my darkest times I knew I had a good future ahead of me.
I didn`t do the typical things that young kids do.
I wasn`t ever good enough to be on the baseball team and that sort of stuff.
My parents were hippies.
I had a very modest upbringing.
But I`ve consistently worked for 10 years.
When you go in and do a cool, small character, it feels less like work and more like fun.
My mom just understands about stuff. We have a really good trust, and she knows I can take care of myself.
Life started getting good when I started making money.
The big things I`ve had are things I bought myself.
It`s been such a group effort. When you`re a new band and you have limited resources, you end up getting people that are there because they love what you do, and that`s great.
Nobody believes it, but I slept on a futon till I was 13.
My theory is, independent movies only work if you`re willing to push the material and do something different.
Like, they know that I have a habit of rubbing my earlobes, I`ve been doing it since I was two.
