I really [enjoy] working with new people and just sort of the freshness of it. ... I [want] to have those new conversations, musically and otherwise.

There's something artistic about skating. A psychologist could tell you exactly why that is, but I think there's something much more expressive that gives you a lot of room for unique and individual expression. Whatever you're interested in can become something you kind of own in your group of skater friends.

I tend to [have] a lot of ideas but then just leave them in that infant form and kind of move on.

I have no ethics when it comes to art. You just do what you can to make it as beautiful as you can.

Honestly, humans are social creatures that really crave intimacy, and I think that the friends I have who are trying to somehow go it alone are suffering for it.

My dad and I get into it all the time. He loves to discuss politics much more than I do and we have pretty heated conversations.

I suppose, if someone was into baseball for an extended period of time during their formative years, they're always going to be interested in it.
