I think music is a big, big wide world, and I am voyager on this particular ship in this sea of wild music, and I'm gonna dive in and find as many fish as I can and catch them all. I love music.

I don't care at all about the mainstream; I don't care about popularity contests; I don't care about who's got the biggest-selling album; and I don't care about glossy production.

I'm a bad pessimist. I don't think about how successful any record I've ever done is going to do before it came out.

You're always going to have detractors, and you're always going to have people who love you, and that's how it's perfectly balanced and the world spins on.
