I'm not a rock star. Sure I am, to a certain extent because of the situation, but when kids ask me how it feels to be a rock star, I say leave me alone, I'm not a rock star. I'm not in it for the fame, I'm in it because I like to play. ↗

I liked the way my character, Shane, was first introduced. You get introduced to her through this sexual action, and I thought that was so cool and just kind of summed up what she enjoys and who she is, to a certain extent.

I play piano and guitar and I do write my own stuff so to a certain extent I know what I want to do in regards to music.

Beck said he didn't believe in the theory of a song coming through you as if you were an open vessel. I agree with him to a certain extent. ↗

We try to... we are, I suppose to a certain extent all affected and erm, that is both funny and sad I think. ↗

You want to do something that shows some type individuality and talent and imagination - at the same time, you want to be truthful to the predecessors, because obviously the audience liked something about them and you have to replicate that experience to a certain extent. ↗

He knew a lot about his grandparents - and perhaps he feels he's been endowed with abilities to go into people's heads who are long dead - but, to a certain extent, he's making it up. ↗
