If the choice is between doing something supercool and having no one hear it and doing something equally cool and tricking people into putting it on the radio, I don't think the second option is some big sellout.

My music was never considered cool, but I've always felt that connection with the audience.

I would never do a commercial for something that is embarrassing, and I think that people maybe have a different perspective on what is embarrassing or not. Some people think doing a Revlon hair commercial is really cool. To me, that's embarrassing, but World of Warcraft - not embarrassing, very cool.

So you got the cool New Yorkers, and then there are the less-than-cool New Yorkers.

I mean the cool thing about the movies is that you get to try on these different personalities and different styles.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I wanted to build some kind of lifestyle brand that was preppy and cool.

We had incense and rock'n'roll posters, and we sold records and rolling papers. People could just, like, hang out. We had a cool vibe going.

I influenced the BG style by not being able to draw perspective. The BG artists developed cool graphic painting styles to make my bad backgrounds look like they were that way on purpose.

I try to be the best husband I can be, and if people respect that, that's cool. But there's no 'perfect husband.' We just all try to do the best we can, you know what I mean?

One interviewer asked me: 'How do you feel that you've betrayed your father?' That wasn't really very cool.
