Because I have something to say doesn't mean everyone has to take it too seriously or get too upset that it rubs them the wrong way.

No race or civilization of people are just going to say, "Oh, instead of using real meat, let's just mash up a bunch of lymph nodes and put a bunch of weird stuff in it and pack it up in plastic cans and plastic bins, and let's eat that way. That'll be great." People don't choose that.

Essentially any history we have is just a history of aristocrats. We don't have any history of people.

I just started playing music on the street and walking around with a fiddle, and I think that's kind of when I started being serious - or as serious as it's going to get.

I'm just a guy that sings songs because that's what he likes to do, I guess.

I was born or raised in the church, so I guess the first songs I would have played would have been church songs.

I don't care too much for thinking about the past. The truth is just another story. You can remember it any way you want; it's never gonna be the same twice.
