Insignificant events can take on monumental proportions when your head is full of practically nothing.

The way I paint is similar to rock in that you don't stand around and say, 'Gee, what are they talking about?' Rock is simple, blunt, colorful. Same with my paintings. You don't stand back and wonder what it is. That's Jim Morrison, that's a panda, that's a scene on the West Coast. It's not abstract.

You don't have to wear fur. They make such great fakes. There's no reason to kill an animal.

I was appalled that the San Francisco ethic didn't mushroom and envelope the whole world into this loving community of acid freaks. I was very naive.

Mainly I make music, and you can do that until you drop dead.

The main point for me is moral; animals are sentient beings. I know for some this is a hard argument to accept, but we're not built to eat a lot of meat.

Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.
