A lot of people think Formula One isn’t a sport because everyone drives a car when they go to work in the morning. But we’re pulling up to six G on a corner or during breaking, which is almost like being a fighter pilot. So we have to do a lot of work on our neck muscles.

I always think of the ‘Schizophrenia’ album as being like the cover of the Scorpions’ ‘Blackout.’ It’s got this guy breaking out of the glass, but he’s got a straightjacket on. I think it’s a bit of ‘Blackout’ mixed with a little bit of ‘A Clockwork Orange.’
As God took me through the journey that became the Bible study ‘Breaking Free’, He taught me to look for a common denominator among the things that triggered my destructive habits.

When we don’t get any treats, we feel depleted, resentful, and angry, and we feel justified in self-indulgence. We start to crave comfort – and grab that comfort wherever we can, even if it means breaking good habits.
I’m a filmmaker, so I always think: When is the breaking point? Sometimes you’ve got to go beyond the breaking point, and then you catch it. When is long enough? It’s one of those things you have to look at, walk away, and go home and find out what it is.
I like the fact that glass ceilings are breaking all over.

‘Breaking Bad’ – I’ve heard that question phrased in many directions, and it always means the same thing. It’s when someone can’t… when a decent person can’t take it any more. They just kind of turn and go in the opposite direction.
I’m interested in that thing that happens where there’s a breaking point for some people and not for others. You go through such hardship, things that are almost impossibly difficult, and there’s no sign that it’s going to get any better, and that’s the point when people quit. But some don’t.
I’m prone to breaking out on my chest and back because I work out a lot.

You look at anything, and you’re like, ‘Is this as good as ‘Breaking Bad?” It took a while for me to stop comparing every project that comes my way to that. That’s one of the reasons I wanted to do ‘Life in Pieces.’ I just want something that’s a 180. I just wanna do something completely different.
