Just as eunuchs will never know aesthetics as applied to the selection of beautiful women, so neither will pure rationalists ever know ethics, nor will they ever succeed in defining happiness, for happiness is a thing that is lived and felt, not a thing that is reasoned or defined.

I'm a nice guy, but I like to get into trouble.

The whole cultural diversity and musical diversity, I think they almost go hand in hand, you know? It's like a mind space or a it's having an open mind to what else is out there.

'SNL' is probably one of the premiere outlets that a musician can perform on that isn't obviously a music outlet.

I mean, there's plenty of artists who are making R&B music, but because of their ethnicity, it's considered something else.

There's just something really, really timeless about live instruments. There's just something special about them that you can't really duplicate or grasp without including live instruments.

I'm a big advocate of music being an honest representation of who you are as a person and your perspective.
