My older brother Mike is an excellent trumpet player. By the time he was 12 he was playing around Kansas City in classical situations. He was already an amazing talent.

You can muck around with different guitars for certain bits but you have to have your own sound. That's your benchmark that's your sound. I also play a Black Beauty. It sounds amazing.

I get to travel around the world and meet all of these amazing people and they're singing my songs! And to me that's crazy.

I have never had trouble with any actor being able to visualise things. They are amazing. As long as you have your monster head on a long stick so you can hold it up there and you can wave it around and let them see it and explain it to them they are just great.

The lips on my upper right bicep are my girlfriend's lips. She has the most amazing lips and I wanted to carry them around with me everywhere I go considering I can't carry her lips physically with me. So I decided to place them in a discreet location such as the inside part of my bicep.

We have an amazing fan base all around the world that love 40FT.

I left my job in the fall and now I can set my life up around writing instead of squeezing writing into my day it's amazing to have that time and I feel very lucky.

I have amazing people around me. I couldn't be in a better place. I'm grateful for my life and where I'm at. I never thought I could be in the position that I'm in.

Always expect the unexpected. Right around Thanksgiving when the new Alex Cross will be out. It's called Four Blind Mice and it's a pretty amazing story about several murders inside the military.

I think Paul Newman had an amazing career. I also love what Tom Hanks has done. He has always made very grounded movies that have something to say. He has found a way to make blockbusters that are about something and that is what I want to do.

I knew I'd just done one of the most amazing things that I will ever get a chance to do. Just to be part of a musical that's not your background and to pull it off and to think that we've done something that's really special.

Anyone who has played the game professionally you're always taught that the ball is the most important most precious thing so when the ball hits the ground it's always a mad scramble. It's amazing how many times there is a fumble and the person who recovers it initially doesn't walk away with the ball.

I don't want to wake up and not truly be enjoying my life and these amazing things around me.

I jetset around and play these songs and get to hang with some pretty amazing people then I go home to a really great farm though actually it's a disaster area of a farm at the moment. But it's certainly a blast. I wouldn't trade lives with anyone right now.

I've been very fortunate to be able to jump around. I just did this really wonderful film called Map of the World. That was a real amazing dramatic story. Then I did a movie called Company Men a little comedy about the Bay of Pigs.

Well when you're the youngest of five parents kind of lose interest more and more through the children. I think my eldest brother was under loads of pressure to do something amazing with his life but by the time I came around they were like 'Well let's hope he doesn't kill a guy.'

After I finished high school I went to Hong Kong and Thailand and spent some time there. Just to get that whole experience of being out of the bubble that I was in from high school in Vancouver to be able to travel around and be on your own was an amazing experience.
