My records are basically a litany of complaints against the world, and I'm quite like that in real life as well.

I've always had an obligation to creation, above all.

I don't like those songs where you have to listen to a story to get into them. I don't want to have to pay attention to music in that way, I just want it to hit me in the heart and do what music's supposed to do.

I have a particular dislike for children's films. I'm way past the novelty aspect.

God has matured. He is not the impulsive, bowelless being of the Testaments - the vehement glorymonger, with His bag of cheap carny tricks and his booming voice - the fiery huckster with his burning bushes and his wonder wands. Nowadays God knows what He wants and He knows who He wants.

I've never been interested in being relevant.

Most screen violence is tedious.
