If someone is cynical and doesn't vote and ends up with a crummy job in a crummy country with a decimated environment, they only have themselves to blame.

I'm pretty much a realist. There's a certain age you get to when you're not really going to be shown anymore.

Let peace and beauty reign.

People love their favorite records. And I aspire to make a record someone might be able to love in that way.

I've been having a midlife crisis since I was four years old.

You can sit down with Reason or Ableton and literally in a couple of hours make a very good-sounding record. But then a lot of people become contented with that, rather than pushing themselves to making something that sounds great.

You could spend every waking moment online and still only experience one-trillionth of what's out there. I find that a little overwhelming.
