A lot of people say I wouldn't have a down day, but you look at the music and there's real melancholy.

Music is the only thing in this world, with the exception of sneezing and looking at the sunset, that takes you to a place that's above the mundane. Everything else is just bullshit.

I believe that all people are deserving of equal dignity and also equal protection. I also believe in science. And those are three things the Republican party platform doesn't believe in.

You just gotta go after things you like.

When you're just shagging girls, you can talk about it, but once it gets real, then you don't.

What we value about music and literature are the moments that they create in our minds when we encounter them.

My music is my way to rearrange the world according to my own hopes.
