Life owes you nothing. You owe yourself everything.

The people I respect the least are the ones that take themselves way too seriously.

The first year I was sober was probably the worst year of my life. My immune system was screwed. I completely isolated myself. I was weak all the time. I didn't know who I was.

I am tired of the superficial smiles that adorn the many ghouls among us. I am tired of the righteous indignation that hides beneath those visages that feign our best interest and deign to think we cannot and will not stand for ourselves.

Playing live is a lost art, and you don't see a lot of bands that go out and play the way the older bands do. It's a celebration, and a lot of people treat it like a commercial or a distraction.

You cannot kill what you did NOT create

Do what you do and mean it every second of the day. If you don't, you're living someone else's life.
