I'm not going to be hardened by these people, to these things, I'm not going to let them destroy my feelings or my emotions.

I've got a fierce passion for politics but I can't stand the smarmy, hypocritical upper-middle-class dictator nation that prevails and has always prevailed in this country. I'm up for petrol bombers, mate, and fighting in the streets.

Broken glass. It's just like glitter, isn't it?

No one comes up to me asking for a crack dealer's number. People come up to me to talk about lyrics, about music, about the band.

I'm not going to be hardened by these people, to these things, I'm not going to let them destroy my feelings or my emotions.

When inspiration and emotions are sudden, and you can truly capture something, then, yeah, of course it feels good. But when you’re stunted, and you’re having trouble expressin’ yourself, then obviously it doesn’t. So it’s never constant.

I’m not saying that maybe there isn’t a kid out there whose behavior hasn’t been influenced by me in some way. I’m sure there is. But I can only speak for myself, and if you’d asked if my behavior had ever been affected by people I’d admired from afar, like musicians or footballers, that’d be a yes, totally.
