You know more about me than I do about myself, that's probably true.

I don't write down my experiences, but I have a very decent memory. I have tons of books in which I write down phrases as they occur to me. That's how I write songs. I'll need a line and I'll go through the books and find it, the right rhyme and everything.

Basically, between 1989 and 1994, I hadn't taken a vacation.

Even the bands I dig don't have a history of attaining mass consumption.

I've got time, I hope, to make lots of quiet records. So quiet you won't be able to hear them.

I'd forgotten what it was like to play music and have it be fun so I decided to stop. I wasn't even sure if I was going to make a new record, I was just kinda quitting.

I used to have a sort of spiky haircut and it just feels better to have short hair again.
