- (on the name 'E') "It's just a nickname I've had since a teenager and it's just gone too far, now I'm a grown man and it's embarrassing. It's like, what are the neighbourhood kids suppose to call me now? "Mr. E"... you know?."
- (on having a song in the movie 'Road Trip') "That is kind of a sore subject with me. I have never seen that movie and I don't want to, it doesn't look like something I'd like. I was sort of forced into it at gun point by the record company and I regret it all. I regret the whole thing,"
- Neil Young is the only person I can think of that's inspired me, that I could say I've consciously thought of and applied. He can do more with one note than most people can manage with 50.
- "You know how the Beach Boys kind of got to the point where Brian Wilson didn't even need to go on stage so he just stayed home? Well, that's my goal. All I need to do now is find a Glen Campbell to replace me...".
