I'm not much of a partier anymore. I enjoy clarity much more.

Making miracles is hard work, most people give up before they happen.

Once over there [Balkans], I felt extremely patriotic. Here are these people, from 18-year-olds to military veterans, enduring real duress for the cause of peace. I don't ever want to play for a regular audience again, only military folks who are starving for music.

I didn't get into making music for the fame aspect. There are people who do desire that.

I hate how I've had the mantle set on my shoulders as being against the record label. We've had some issues, but that is the nature of business.

Generally, when you let go of your vision of how something is supposed to be, the universe hands you exactly what you need.

People go through challenging moments of losing people and of having their life threatened from illness and real grief. But they get through it. And that's the testament to the human spirit and it's -we are fragile, but we also are divine.
