I don't live anywhere, so that's what's fun about tours.

I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.

Making music and art is about expressing something that's universally human, maybe even beyond human, at best.

Musicians wake up and create a more loving community by creating heavier music.

I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.

That's what I mean by "Western morality," is the lack of morality. There is none. People are out for themselves, and they'll stab you in the back.

I was just a folk singer. I cut my teeth on the streets, you know.
