If they think that an artist can destroy their faith, then their faith is rather fragile.

I'm someone who is open-minded to new experiences because they teach you new things.

I'm so famous, people expect me to sell as many records as Celine Dion or Puff Daddy.

I chose not to jump into the media frenzy and defend myself, though I was begged to be on every single TV show in existence. They want to blame entertainment? Isn't religion the first real entertainment? People dress up in costumes, sing songs and dedicate themselves in eternal fandom.

Ultimately, because I'm an artist, I can't ever consider myself a nihilist, so I suppose I'm optimistic.

I put out a lot of ideas in the lyrics and the way I do my things. There's a lot of ideas floatin' around and people who know what it is. People will pick it up if they know what to pick up.

You cannot sedate all the things you hate.
