I was living in a loft with Dave Sitek - this loft full of people just working on their stuff. Some were painting, some were writing. Any plans you had were kind of like a plan for the next two months.

I have nothing against people getting their band back together, but the artists I love marked a time in my life, and to merge that time with now can be personally depressing.

Hearing that [David] Bowie passed was like you don't really believe it. It's as if the sky shifted a little bit, to remind you it was there.

Touring is really a weird social experiment, even though everyone thinks it's a party every day.

There are people who kind of let you know that you can silence the room.

I don't want my reasons to be informed by what people think about what I'm doing.
