Certain kinds of people will always have an issue with my music. But that’s fine; it’s OK. I don’t want to be the McDonald’s of music. I don’t want to not turn anyone off. If you were everybody’s cup of tea, you’d probably be boring.

My nightmare is that I don’t want to be OK.
If you trust your instincts and it doesn’t turn out right, OK. But if you compromise and defer to what somebody else is telling you and it doesn’t work out, that feeling gnaws at me.

At the premiere for ‘Leave It to Beaver,’ I was walking down the red carpet, and they were screaming my name, and I’m wondering, ‘What do I do?’ So I had to think, ‘OK, calm down, one person at a time.’ Everything is kind of rattling, but afterwards, my publicist said I did really good.
I’ve always wanted to make people feel better or feel alright or feel comfortable or not threatened and feel OK in their own skin.

Most of us yearn for really intimate, healthy, in-person relationships.

The capacity for online interactions to do that is powerful.
I was popular, and I enjoyed that, and my mother kept telling me I better take typing so I’d have something to fall back on. I didn’t know what the future held, but once I got my law degree, I started to feel like, ‘OK, I’m a serious person.’
OK, I will never say anything degrading or bad about Tom Brady. He is a god in cleats.

It’s a very hard goal. But, what I want is to tell people who are getting bullied to stand up to the bully and not let it be OK – tell a teacher, the principal, or your parents. I want people to stand up and to be confident.
There’s been times where I sold the place out, and I walked in and the guy’s like, ‘Uh, ID?’ ‘No, you can’t ID me, man.
