There's nothing that anyone could say about me that would hurt my feelings.

I don't think that my lyrics are over-laced with profanity, because I myself don't speak using a lot of profanity in normal conversation. But I think when you're making something aggressive and you need to get a point across, if you're angry, sometimes profanity is necessary. It's better to use a curse word than to hurt somebody else, I find.

Sometimes you feel awkward being what you're best at, you feel like you have to be something new.

I spent hours flipping through the stations, watching Pat Robertson preach about society’s evils and then ask people to call him with their credit card number.

There's no reason to change what you are, but if you're not being you, then you need to acknowledge that.

I heard this album as finished, I heard it in dreams . . . It was like the revelations of John the Baptist or something.

You'll understand when I'm dead.
