It seems to be that southern Europeans are just more intimate socially, whereas I like a lot of personal space - like, a mile from the nearest person is fine for me.

I feel that I've grown up a little bit and I'm actually ready to settle down.

I think anyone who has an opinion, and voices it, will offend someone.

People ask how I learned to play bass with one hand. Well, with a face like mine, you learn to do a lot of things with one hand.

I don't really like to play live. I don't like to be on stage. I feel very self-conscious.

I stay way from that area, and there's only so many songs you can write about love, sex and death.

I'm the product of 6 million years of evolution? Come on, man. I crawled out of a swamp yesterday.
