I wish to begin again on a daily basis. To be born again every day is something that I try to do. And I'm deadly serious about that.

I'm a musician. I write songs. I just hope when the day is done I've been able to tear a little corner off of the darkness.

It's a privilege to serve the poor, to be servants of noble Africans, but I better belong in the rehearsal room or in the studio with my band. That's where I want to be and I still wake up in the morning with melodies in my head.

Laughter is eternity if joy is real.

Jesus, Jesus help me. I'm alone in this world.

U2 is an original species... there are colours and feelings and emotional terrain that we occupy that is ours and ours alone.

Even though I'm a believer, I still find it really hard to be around other believers. They make me nervous, they make me twitch. I sorta watch my back.
