Jared Leto quotes on music

6. Is it a little rude to answer your phone in the middle of a [censored] song?

11. We made a record over the past three years, we worked on this album called, 'A Beautiful Lie,' and it's really just a collection, during the past three years. It's a really personal record, it's brutally honest. It's about what it is to be human and to love, and live- life, death and everything in between.

12. The first record [self-titled] was my brother and I, and this record [A Beautiful Lie] has changed because Tomo and Matt are part of the band, part of the experience, and we are happy to be sharing IT with them.

13. Well, my brother and I have been playing music since we were kids together, and in a sense it has always been 30 Seconds to Mars. We've always wanted to do something that was different, creative and unique as possible. It was kind of a... different take on things musically. We wanted to stand alone, as strongly as we could. And Matt we've been playing with for about... not literally--[band giggles]--but we've been playing with for about 3 1/2 years [Shannon looks at Matt- 'I can't believe it's been three years.'] or longer, and Tomo has been with us for a couple years.

14. Uh, we are 30 Seconds To Mars and it is our...ungodly pleasure, and privilege - we're grateful beyond believe - to be the 'Artists of the Day.' Thank you so much. (Tomo, Shannon, Matt -'Thank you')

16. This is a song... called 'The Kill.' But don't be scared, it's a nice song. About losing your mind.

20. Dem Franchize Boyz. I know who Franchize Boyz are, but who's Dem? Dem? Which one is Dem?

34. I knew what I was walking into, and I knew that I was going to get my ass kicked, and it would have been much easier to just continue making films, but I've been making music since I was a kid and I certainly wasn't going to let that stop me from pursuing my dreams...

35. I never look at myself as a closet actor wanting to make music or a closet musician wanting to act -- I'm very proud to do both and I don't put one above the other, I'm very grateful and excited by both opportunities -- it's really a unique opportunity to do both.

48. I've always had a very strong interest in Asian culture, It always struck a deep chord in me, and some of my favorite films are Kurosawa's 'Kagemusha' and 'Ran,' and Bertolucci's 'The Last Emperor.' And I thought that the passion of the people, the history and the culture would be a really strong foundation for the song ['From Yesterday'].
