Just the kind of girl I liked—the weirdo in the bunch.

I was a little self-centered gutter punk in the early 1980s and all I wanted to do was diss everybody.

I had to educate him that there was no such thing as writer's block, that writers write when they write, and when they don't, they don't.

I think there is always going to be inspired music and there are always going to be inspired listeners and there is always going to be an inspired method of getting it from A to B.

I don't even know what words to use to talk about the music industry anymore. But the business has changed a lot - the methods of releasing music.

The good news is that by the second year, those cravings were about as half as frequent, and by the third year, half as much again. I'm still a little bent, a little crooked, but all things crooked, I can't complain. After all those years of all kinds of abuse and crashing into trees at eighty miles an hour and jumping off buildings and living through overdoses and liver disease, I feel better now than I did ten years ago. I might have some scar tissue, but that's alright, I'm still making progress.

I inherited my father's insatiable desire to meet all the beautiful girls in the world.
