Music has the power to stop time. But music also keeps time.

How do you plan a rebirth? I'm not sure you do. You just stand in the darkness until you can't endure it any long, and then you move forward until you're standing in the light.

And even though people like to furrow their brow like they suspect you're not being honest about yourself, the truth is that they worry that you're not serving their idea of you.

At the end of the day, I don't release any records that I'm not proud to put my name on. I never got to that point.

We have to get back to "we." It's important to get back to "we" not just "I."

Every time a new record started, people exhaled with pleasure, or their bodies moved automatically. I really started getting high off of the euphoric exclamations. Every record I put on was like a baptism.

When you first start off, you see what other people have and quietly say, "I want that."
