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

I know it's simple, but my main inspiration is just my love of music. I know that sounds overly naive. But it's true.

I’ve never seen the need to choose one type of music at the exclusion of another. That would feel kind of sad and arbitrary.

Unfortunately I'm still straight. But who knows, life is complicated and maybe I'll wake up gay tomorrow! Here's hoping. And congratulations to everyone who lives in a place where they can marry the person they love, regardless of gender!

You know, if you love something, you should love it regardless of whether it costs five dollars or 500 or 5,000 dollars. Unfortunately, that's not the way our culture works, and we do collectively buy into this idea that things that are more expensive probably have more value.

I taught Bible Study, and there was period where I thought all of my beliefs were right, and everybody who disagreed with me was wrong.

The worst case scenario is you really like someone's work, then you meet them and they're a self-involved, entitled douchebag.
