I went walking around the city some more, people watching with a cold, blank stare. And I saw your face in everyone, I swear.

I didnt know how many people knew who Ferdinand was.

I want to keep making records as long as I can and that's the beginning and end of my concern about selling records.

Static in my head, the reflected sound of everything, tried to go to where it led, but it didn't lead to anything.

Well, I try not to think about the general public since I have no idea what the general public is and I don't think anybody does.

I got tired of doing battle with people thinking I was a little weird because I wasn't in a band making happy, stilted music. The only people who really seem weird to me are people who think they're normal. People who think it's possible to be normal just by doing the same things that most people do. Is there a most people? I don't know. Television makes it seem like there is, but I think that might just be television.

It was kind of ridiculous to carry it up to a certain point and then drop the ball or the bomb, like quitting the band right after we had signed to Virgin.
