I have been restless for as long as I can remember.

To anger female voters in America is to tread on the tiger's tail. Women turn out in huge numbers, and they are well aware of how their bodies work and what they need.

For me the music is not so much anger as much as it is of passion. And I've always associated that kind of intense emotional output with music just because the nature of the music that's attracted me as far as live.

The Bad Seeds are a band I will travel a great distance to see whenever possible.

I would like to get out to the region in the Caspian sea. I would like to go there. I would like to get to Darfur. I would like to get to Khartoum in Northern Sudan. I would like to get to Zimbabwe. I would like to go back to North Korea, if I could. I would like to go to Yemen. I would like to get to Kashmir. Most of those destinations I will get to.

If I'm in L.A. for longer than 20 days, I'm looking for work, because I don't do vacations.

It's so painful to be next to someone you feel strongly about and know you can't say the things you want to.
