I have three dads: my biological father, God and Bob Dylan.

Great work comes from great joy. Leave the angst for the movies; do art - that is fun.

If you have twenty guys in the room and you just bring in one girl, you change the entire mood and everyone plays different.

In my bands, I don't really walk around telling people what to play, just out of respect really. I mean, if there's something I feel in my gut, I'll bring it up.

Do not trust people who call themselves musicians or record collectors who say that they don’t like Bob Dylan or the Beatles. They do not love music if those words come out of their mouths.

We learn to beat fear by doing.

It's harder to put yourself in a place where you could easily be seen as a fake. But that's more interesting to me.
