The way I play guitar is very, very hard and I bloody myself incredibly without the tape. And the nails are my picks.

How come I can pick my ears but not my nose?

It's the ground that we walk on, it's where we sit, it's the language that we use. It's a difficult undertaking, but I think without healing that and creating more of a balance between the sexes, we will never have balance globally. I feel like I am going deeper and deeper into this space where I came from that I barely understood.

The old farm roads a four lane that leads to the mall, and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall.

What I like about being independent [in the music industry] is that anybody who does play the album on the radio and anybody who does choose to write in the media does so because they want to, because they like it or because they find something interesting there, not because they have to.

Words are hotter than flames. Words are wetter than water.

But in the garden of simple, where all of us are nameless, you were never anything but beautiful to me.
