All I want to do with my life is try and make music that I really love, and so every day I try and work on music.

I read the New Testament, specifically the gospels and I was struck at their divinity, feeling that humans could not have figured this out on their own. We're just not bright enough.

Should the progressives in Germany in the 30s have tolerated the National Socialists? Of course they shouldn't have.

A lot of times good, pristine recordings prevent the listener from getting emotionally involved in the music.

I like being vegan, I think it's good for my health.

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 wasn't raised Catholic; I just really like the image of a neutral and benign Mary floating around somewhere, being nice to people.
