I've been making music for thirty-six years and, you know, I'm still just as in love with working on music now as I was thirty-six years ago.

I think the word 'blog' is an ugly word. I just don't know why people can't use the word 'journal.'

No one wants to be hated, in public, by lots of people.

That softness around your eyes, a softness in your face. Almost the way you feel when you’re about to start crying. That, to me, is love. It can be romantic love, it can be friendship love, it can be family love, it can be love for a chipmunk. It can be love for anything.

The way I work on music is that I go into my studio, and I start playing music, and I see what happens, and... I never think about it.

I would drink and drink and then at 3 o'clock in the morning take anything that was put in front of me. And I'd sometimes be disappointed when conventional things were put in front of me. Like, I'd do a line of something and be disappointed to find it was just cocaine.

Since I was really little, I've just always had an obsession with, not just science fiction, but science and space. And also because as time passes and the more advanced science becomes, the more interesting it becomes.
