Everything becomes closer once you realize that the world is only as far away as a nap and a meal.

Be alone even when there's a million people around, because tomorrow it will be a different million people.

For me, the best part is people who watch the movie and tell me it inspired them to collaborate with their friend who's a photographer or filmmaker.

Instead of just looking back, whiplash-style, I can assume there's something else coming. Time just folds over itself, like origami.

Gatekeeper was sort of my first attempt to put a little bit of a frame and boundaries around songwriting, and try to figure out a way to approach it that had a sort of end result in mind. I havent written many like that.

I don't think that village idea of actually knowing what you're contributing to the whole exists anymore.

Songwriting is a really fortunate skill to have to frame living and to find new ways to observe things you're going through.
