Try to keep your mind. Try not to eat bad, try not to wake up with too bad of a hangover.

I think I like singing when I'm singing live. It's just in the studio when it's a drag.

I'm making music with my friends. It's fun. It should be fun. You shouldn't make music if it isn't fun.

I miss working. It's real, you know? But I don't know anything but songwriting, and I don't even know that. I didn't go to school; the only thing I know how to do is this. The only thing that I know is that I know nothing.

People take things a little too personal. I write these songs, and they're experiments with thoughts. That's it. I'm not a teacher.

When I was young, I used to go to Baha'i camp, and they taught me a lot about the equality of religions.

Folk art has never been much about politics; it's about action and utility.
