Anybody who's a guitar player that's spent that time with another guitar player, there's nothing better than that.

Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal

I think you get people taking things to excess in all fields, doctors, lawyers - -it happens to all kinds of people.

Everything's very perfectly balanced; for all the horrible things in the world there's lots of good things.

But for me if I'm gonna read about something I'd rather read a pamphlet or the instructions to a synthesizer than a book on Buddhism.

You are free. Close your eyes. Open your mind. Let this music in, and you will see that this is true

I never feel like I'm running out of ideas, because it is clear to me - music is infinite
