I don't know any musician, successful or otherwise, that got in it to make money. Or writer, for that matter. You get into it because you love it.

As I've gotten older, I realize how important my fans are and that I'm here because of them and not the other way around.

If the timing's right and the gods are with you, something special happens.

I've always liked the heavier stuff. I've always loved Tool and System of a Down, Korn and Nine Inch Nails.

When someone pursues music through your music, that's the greatest accolade anybody can get.

I was - I've always been a bit of perpetual adolescent.

I was a happy kid up until I hit the teen years.
