I just watched another person I care deeply about basically turn into Gollum and my heart is broken.

I don't want to have to compromise my morals in order to make a living.

As a producer, I'm trying to challenge myself to just make something that is of a professional quality - not necessarily pop music, but maybe in the sense that Nine Inch Nails is professional quality.

Lets make it known that we don't want to give away our beautiful homeland to corporate interests. It is our right as Canadians to be part of these decisions. The only thing standing between this world and environmental catastrophe is us

I love humanity, I love the way people look

I find it really hard to throw myself into something artistically where I'm making up a whole character and finding something for that character to do.

You rarely find someone who sings really well and who produces really well; it's a problem, and I just think it's a missing link in the music scene.
