I like to tour, but I prefer to tour in the United States. If I go overseas, I tend to get into trouble.
Daniel JohnstonWhen I was a kid, I always thought that I'd be a comic book artist. It took a long time to start thinking that I could be a musician.
Daniel JohnstonI wish I had never got manic depression. When I was in junior high, I didn't know what was the matter with me. It was as if I'd died or something. Now that I go to a clinic and get the right kind of medicine, I am not as depressed as I used to be.
Daniel JohnstonI believe in spiritualism. It's like, when you listen to music or something and then you're sort of primed. If you're an artist, you're sort of primed and inspired, and you start drawing, you sort of have the spirit of what you're listening to, still in you. You just have sort of an inspiration.
