Constantly choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.

In my own musical existence I don't feel that being a guitar player is like the best thing on earth to be. I would rather be a balanced musician. Playing in a group, I'm tending to think more about the music and less about the guitar. That's just me getting older. I'm not interested in being a virtuoso guitar player or anything like that.

Nobody stopped thinking about those psychedelic experiences. Once you've been to some of those places, you think, 'How can I get back there again but make it a little easier on myself?'

For me, the lame part of the Sixties was the political part, the social part. The real part was the spiritual part.

So we are pretty convinced we don't want to play huge stadiums unless we can play them well.

There is no dogma, there isn't anything about how the universe works.

In reality everybody has got musical thoughts. If you are able to overcome the part of it which is muscle training, which is what most musical playing actually is, performance actually is, is muscle training, and you are able to convert your ideas directly into music, you're a musician, too.
