I break my back for music because it's something that I love, but I'm not going to break my back for a bank. I wouldn't want to be an ATM repairman; there are some things that just aren't worth it.

I think music is a selfish masturbatory event - for the listener, the maker, the candlestick...maker.

I think I learned years ago when I went to Hawaii that you don't bring puka shells back. You've got to be careful of your vacation purchases.

I like to move forward and notice things along the roadside that indicate where I should go.

You got to risk something to be able to give something, you know?

Sometimes Queens' music is dark, but somehow it's ok to deliver it with a smile on your face because thing's are still going to kick in.

Sometimes you actually get caught in the web of things where people are talking about... what kind of breakfast cereal you like.
