I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.

Everything good needs replacing

The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.

I'm not going to change my ways just to please you, or appease you.

I guess, and it may be a flaw, that I think about rhythm more [than anything else]. I'm always wanting to find something unusual. I've started to try and write more traditionally, but for whatever reason, I tend toward trying to find something that sounds more like a pattern to me.

Isn't it strange how we move out lives for another day? Like skipping a beat, what if a great wave should wash us all away?

In many instances, we are much better at fixing our mistakes after we've made them. In some situations, it is easier to sweep things under the rug and forget about them.
