I would thank God, but I don't believe in it... It's like a movie that was way too popular. It's a story that's been told too many times and just doesn't mean anything... All I really believe in is this moment, like right now.

I remember back in 1994 when the Eagles charged more than $100 for tickets. They said, 'We ain't Pearl Jam.' That's back when records were selling and the Eagles had sold just about as many as anyone on the planet. And years later we're still charging less than them.

The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied.

It seems like every time I start to feel good, something really awful happens. It's like... it's really terrible.

You feel that no matter what's said in the music or how pointed it may get, the most you can wish for is that it plants a few seeds.

No music is going to stop the war. What's going to stop the war is a large amount of body bags, or a large amount of people in the streets, protesting it before it starts.

I knew all the rules but the rules did not know me.
