Nobody gets married to a clever song, let alone falls in love to one.

A rock'n'roll band needs to be able to get under people's skin. You should be able to clear the room at the drop of a hat.

I try to write for highest common denominator. I don't write for dumb people. I figure if everybody doesn't get it, that's OK. Someone bright enough will get it, and that's who I write for. It's probably not the way to make million-sellers. What can I say? I won't apologize for trying to write for smart people.

People like to see human error when it’s honest. When people see you swing and miss, they start to root for you.

Any musician who can stop may be a musician, but they're no artist. If it's in your blood, it can't stop flowing.

Although, my experience when I've been depressed, not only am I too depressed to sit down and write a song, I'm too depressed to pick up my feet. So if you can at least write about it, you're halfway away from it.

I think it should be evident by now, but I'm as lost as anyone.
