I crave intimacy to the same burning degree that I detest commitment.

I feel that part of my life's artwork is creatively dealing with all this negativity and anger and rage and hatred coming from whatever corners it's coming from and somehow manifesting all of that anger into something positive, which is such a hard job.

I have never in my career embarked on a journey towards controversy. I have never deliberately set a flame.

For most of human history, musicians, artists, they've been part of the community — connectors and openers, not untouchable stars.

I think I've been addicted to openness since long before my rock career. I was terrible as a teenager. I used to go out of my way to make people uncomfortable with personal details. I was always fascinated by the idea that we have these weird, random boundaries between what we do and don't show.

Twitter fascinates me because it's real. It feels kind of unreal, but it makes very real things happen.

Donald Trump is going to make punk rock great again.
