The truth is an anti-war statement in itself.

The tasks I set out for myself are what I do to beat the perfect pointlessness of life.

If you want to believe that humans walked with dinosaurs and the planet is a few thousand years old, that is absolutely fine with me. If you want to teach this to your kids, I don't care. If states want to teach creationism in their schools, there is nothing I can do about it, so I don't sweat it.

War is very sad and small life is pathetically fragile at times.

When you start thinking as far as what's a good photo, unfortunately everything starts looking like a good photo.

I don't cuss in songs. It's too easy.

I live my life by the numbers. Not only am I an American, I am an Americanist.
