We live in a strange bubble.

I’m not religious but I’m definitely very spiritual person. I’ve always said that religion is for people who are scared of ending up in hell. Spirituality is for those who’ve already been there.

As musicians it's often difficult. You go to a dinner party and most people treat you like some kind of exotic animal and in a way like you don't have any problems and that it's all fantastic and glamorous and that you wake up in the morning, you kick the groupies out of bed, you roll onto the floor onto a needle, right, which fills you with a lovely substance, you roll into the gutter and you stare at the moon and out comes beautiful poetry. The fact of the matter is that that's nonsense. It's a lot of hard work.

There's a hell of a lot of freedom in this rock and roll circus... it's where all the freaks go - it's the environment for me.

I believe people are still wonderful in hating. They hate what they don't understand, they hate each other. No matter what anyone says, this world is still not a bit more tolerante than it was before.

Everybody is trying to be so trendy. I think not being trendy should be the next trend.

I had a great deal of arrogance and a great deal of bravado, but I think the bravado was brought on by a huge insecurity.
