 As far as loneliness, I feel Los Angeles and its layout, having to drive everywhere - it is a lonely place. It's an isolated city in that respect because you're driving to places alone listening to the radio. |
| I love the idea of playing a character that didn't over think everything. He knows what's in front of him and he has an ability to just say whatever he felt. |
| I just find that the harder you work and the more effort you put into yourself, the better you'll be. |
| I like being alone and I think this movie, as much as it is an investigation of connection and people bonding, I also think it's just as much about loneliness. |
| In a city where you walk around, it's impossible to plan your day and your life as accidents will happen, you'll overhear things, bump into people, and take unexpected turns. |
| After I quit my band, I definitely was so full, like I'm so full I could never eat again. I had that kind of feeling where the elements, like the touring stuff, were harder for me and I definitely felt fine not experiencing it again. |
| There's all these ways to instantly communicate - cars, computers, telephone and transportation - and even with all that, it's so hard to find people and have an honest communication with them. |
| Steve Martin is such an exquisite and precise writer. Everything is so clear; it's like a bell. He says what he means and says it so beautifully. |
| Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing. |
| I'm a creature of habit. I go to restaurants all the time and stuff. |
| At this point, I think I would garner a lot of hate mail if I was now on the cover of Modern Drummer seeing as I'm not a modern drummer anymore. |
| Whereas I think in New York every step is a detour in every direction. |
| I didn't have an agent, I didn't have a headshot. I didn't even know if anyone would know where to find me. I just went back to highschool and started playing with my band. |
| Also, the more you're not focused on showbiz and instead focused on life, learning about other people, and keeping your eyes open and trying to be aware of the world. |
| But I'd have to say Young Frankenstein, which I can watch forever. |
| Man, I hate to get depressing on you, but I don't have a game. I'm so alone, so depressed, so dark, no. |
| Whereas Jeremy is just the opposite: always moving because he's never really thinking of anything and the kind of guy you'd worry inviting to a dinner party because he says what he thinks. He can be insulting at times but doesn't mean to be. |
| I just have some restaurants to just go and eat there. Do mean places to watch people? I like to go shopping look for guitars and stuff with my friends. Look at Meyer, great old instruments, talk about pedals and stuff. |
| I was heartbroken at the end of that, because I thought that was going to be it for me. Somehow I had worked my way into this movie and it had exposed me to people and I had a chance to be an actor, which I loved, but I didn't think it was ever going to happen again. |
| I always tell people that to be the funny person in a Steve Martin movie is like getting a call that Keith Moon wants you to play drums on his record. He should be playing drums on his record. |
