If a musician is making a mediocre, self-indulgent body of work, they have to know that, for the most part, people aren't going to be interested.

As music became more profitable in the 1990s, it seemed like it attracted a lot of people who were just interested in the financial aspect of it, which is depressing.

There's nothing in the actual Bible that limits a Christian in their appreciation of or interest in science. Anti-science is purely a function of ignorant fundamentalism.

When I was a drunk, New York was the greatest place in the world. You walk everywhere, everything is open until four in the morning, and people go to New York looking for debauchery.

I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.

I'm definitely a fan of public humiliation.

When I say, 'I love Christ and love the teachings of Christ,' I mean that in the most simple and naive way. I'm not saying I'm right.
