I choose to live, not just exist.

There is something powerful in Metallica, a will, a drive.

There was so much good and different music back then and you'd just keep moving through it and discovering more new stuff. I went through my Black Sabbath phase before I even started playing guitar.

I like playing music because it's a good living and I get satisfaction from it. But I can't feed my family with satisfaction.

It's a good feeling, that you can put your heart out there, no matter how black it is, and people can understand it.

All that is, was, and will be. Universe much too big to see. Time and space never ending, disturbing thoughts, questions pending. Limitations of human understanding. Too quick to criticize, obligation to survive, we hunger to be alive. All that is, ever, ever was, will be ever twisting, turning, Through The Never. In the dark, see past our eyes. Pursuit of truth, no matter where it lies. Gazing up to the breeze of the heavens, on a quest, meaning, reason. Come to be, how it begun. All alone in the family of the sun, curiosity teasing everyone. On our home, third stone from the sun.

My whole life was duality: Here's my life at home, here's my life on the road.
