Being an artist is dragging your innermost feelings out, giving a piece of yourself, no matter in which art form, in which medium.

I don't mean to be arrogant and I really appreciate my fans but talking about what I am doing is not something I'm good at. I do what I do and that's it. I want to get back to my work and do more of it instead of talking about it.

Change is hard, but change is good.

I have built my life to pursue the new. I don't have family, don't know many people and I am usually ready to leave within an hour.

The public library system of the United States is worth preserving.

My laptop seems to know where I am, even if I don't. My cellphone asks me if I want directions to anywhere from the spot I am standing in. I buy a record online and Amazon.com sends me letters, telling me that people who bought what I bought also bought these other records.

Pride is a thing that I have tried to abandon completely. Try as I might, pride still creeps into many of the things I do.
