What I really love is my scotch. It's the power, the power of positive drinking.

Writhe and sway to music's pain searing with asides, caress death with a lover's touch for it shall be your bride.

I dreamed that I was young and smart, and it was not a waste. I dreamed that there was a point of life, and to the human race.

I think it's important that people don't feel alone.

The music is all. People should die for it. People are dying for everything else, so why not the music?

Herpes, AIDS, the Middle East at full throttle. Better check that sausage before you put it in the waffle.

Music is an amazing thing. I don't know if we really think about it the same way we consider a painting an amazing thing. I mean, a painting is, in quotes, imaginary. There is nothing on the canvas when you start; and writing a song, there is nothing there when you start.
