Thank you all from the pit of my burning, nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years.

People think of life as being so sacred and they feel like this is their only chance and they have to do something with their life and make an impact As far as I'm concerned, it's just a pitstop for the afterlife. It's just a little test to see how you can handle reality.

Humans are stupid. I'm ashamed to be human.

I just can't believe that anyone would start a band just to make the scene and be cool and have chicks. I just can't believe it.

I wasn’t thriving socially, so I stayed in my room and played guitar all the time, at the time, I thought I was inventing a new sound that would change the whole outlook of music. I’ve discovered in the last few years that it was just the Seattle Sub Pop sound.

Forever in debt to your priceless advice.

I started being really proud of the fact that I was gay even though I wasn't.
