Science's job is to map our ignorance.

The assumption is that your personal life has to be a mess to create, but how much chaos can you allow in before it takes over?

I always think the everyday is more relevant than anything too grand because we all have to deal with it.

We are like the birds. We adapt. We sing.

Punk. . .was more a kind of do-it-yourself, anyone-can-do-it attitude. If you only played two notes on the guitar, you could figure out a way to make a song out of that, and that's what it was all about.

I've changed my music from time to time so I'm hoping that I can completely change my life from time to time, too. Like live in another land, in another place, and just get completely soaked up in another way of being. Could be in this country or another country, somewhere were you can be reborn a number of times not just creatively, but personally as well. I guess I want to go through life as more than one person.
