My parents gave me a boxer puppy as a present. I have wanted a dog for years and must first give her attention in the morning.

I am always late because people stop me for autographs and say hi.

Qualifying for the Olympic Games was one of those moments where you just cry because it was like you've climbed Mount Everest.

I always dreamed of writing in an orchestral context. But when you finish a piece, you want to hear it. So we played everything with Phish.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.
