I was vegetarian, trying to eat from fast-food restaurants without meat. I didn't know how to eat properly and I was starving. I was adrenalized to the eyeballs from performing. I was afraid that I was sick with AIDS. We were playing five shows a week. I even went through a period of abstinence where I didn't drink and stopped having sex. Which is crazy. Maybe I'm answering too many questions at once here, but this is where my mind was at the age of 25.

My feeling is that labels are for canned food... I am what I am - and I know what I am.

Sometimes before we make a record I go back and listen to a few. It's equally humbling and uplifting.

The only thing to fear is fearlessness.

If you disagree with me, fine! Because that's the great thing about America, we can disagree!

And I don't expect anyone can bring about a revolution in the way that Bob Dylan did - and really didn't - in the 1960s.

I'm afraid of everything. I'm not a naturally courageous person.
