My goal as a writer is more to comfort than to disturb.

people will tell you were they have gone, they'll tell you where to go, but until you get there for yourself you never really know.

Everybody's saying hell's the hippest way to go. Well, I don't think so, but I'm gonna take a look around it though.

The pirate he will sink you with a kiss, he'll steal your heart and sail away.

Applause, applause, life is our cause.

Once I got the open tunings for some reason, I began to get the harmonic sophistication that I heard that my musical fountain inside was excited by. Once I got some interesting chords to play with, my writing began to come.

Something's lost, but something's gained, in living everyday.
