Don't push me I've got a corner at my back I've nowhere to go except over you.

I was a very repressed young person. I wasn't good at school. I didn't fit in.

Fish is the only kind of respirating thing that I consume. Everything else I don't want any part of.

Most of the people who call me a sellout were 7 when I was down face-first in the punk trenches.

I like the idea of someone else’s love safely sealed in a song or a book.

I get letters from young people telling me that they're broke and download my albums for free. They ask me what I think about that. I now have a standard line. I tell them, 'I would rather be heard than paid.'

Watching a documentary with people hacking their way through some polar wasteland is merely a visual. Actually trying to deal with cold that can literally kill you is quite a different thing.
