I feel like people might be slightly less inclined to hate me as much as they did in the past, and I think part of that is selling fewer records.

I need an audience way more than an audience needs me.

I love that vinyl is actually growing in popularity, and that there are so many great record stores.

David Lynch is my friend, and I love his movies and his art and his music. Few things make me happier than working with him.

When I was growing up, I was the most pretentious person I have ever met. I only read obscure books and watched obscure movies and only listened to obscure music.

I know, in my heart of hearts, I don't do things for money.

Most artists, you know, you spend their entire lives learning how to play music and write songs, and they don't really know how the music business works.
