Life is a series of problems to figure out how to solve gracefully and with dignity. That is what life is and I can't see it any other way.

I'm selling more records on my own than I did on major labels.

I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do.

I suppose I should be happy to be misread; better be that than some of the other things I have become.

I certainly understand that we're all trying to make a living, but I'm not thinking about that when I'm making it. And if that's your sole motivation, it's going to reflect that narcissistic greed and you're going to hear it in the music.

When things are really great, it just means everything's in it's place.

I don't consider myself a great writer, but I would like to think that I can at least proof- read.
