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

I hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.

It is criminal to put our servicemen and women in harm's way and to put the lives of so many civilians on the line for the misguided frustrations of the Bush administration.

Goodnight moon. Sweet dreams. Smile kindly upon this little blue gum ball of us while we sleep.

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.

I don't feel like I'm standing in a position where I have some right above other people to say what I think. We should all be talking to each other about what we think is important - whether we're in politics, or whether we're checking out at a grocery store. We shouldn't put walls up between each other.
