I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage. I found that just surviving was a noble fight.

I was listening to stuff and I realized that I've had a lot of different lives. You know the theory [that says] every seven years, you have a different life? I think that's true.

I look in the mirror and think, 'I don't look like a rock star.' I talked about this with Bono and we looked at each other and decided we look like a pair of bricklayers.

Like family, we are tied to each other. This is what all good musicians understand.

I'm kind of putting my toe back in the water and seeing how it feels. We're going to be doing stuff we haven't done for years and years and years. So I'm looking forward to seeing how this stuff flies.

There will be other words some other day; that is the story of my life.

Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue.
