You'll understand when I'm dead.

My goal isn't to make money, it's to try and survive and make a point.

Art is a big question mark.

Looking back, the only person that really surprised me was Chris Vrenna only because I've known him since 1992, and for him not to be able to say it to my face, "Hey, I don't want to do this anymore." Instead, he said "I'll see you tomorrow" and then he never came back. I find that strange. I don't know if he is afraid of me or thinks I'm going to beat him over the head with something. I'm not like that.

If you die and enough people are watching, then you become a martyr, you become a hero, you become well-known.

The record is about seeing death and growing from it, and in the end, being strong and being alive.

Anybody intelligent enough to realize what America is, is not going to sit around and do nothing about it. They're going to be the same way that I am. They're going to be the same way our fans are. They're going to be pissed.
