#Quote
1[on his Jar Jar Binks character representing a black slave stereotype] You know what? You have got to check your head and examine your own beliefs. Jar Jar is an orange frog. Heads need to relax. That shit is crazy . . . I just thought I was doing a funny role. I didn't know that the Jedi were a metaphor for the Man.
2It doesn't bother me that people are stupid. I'm not stupid.
3I'm going to move on and do other things. My life isn't going to be about Jar Jar Binks.
4I'm recording another demo for another batch of record labels that we'll shop it around to.
5We like to think of film and music as art, but actually art is something that is not restricted.
