I like a women who's got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that's fine.

Most of my guitars have been instruments that look cool. I'm not picky. I never think, 'Oh, this neck isn't made of ebony,' or, 'These strings don't feel correct.' It doesn't matter too much.

I love playing the melodic stuff. I love adding textures and colors.

Every band that I've known that has done side projects or things like that - I don't respect them anymore.

Every breath I take becomes deeper, and I become more confident of myself without my crutches. The lies I've filled my body and soul with aren't needed anymore. They're not welcome. I choose to live, not just exist.

I think it's very cool for the drummer to be set free from having to worry about holding down the beat every once in a while, though it's a little constricting.
