You make kingdoms and castles on your own.

I've spent several years now with my head down.

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.

Books stay with me and have shaped me and made huge impacts on my life.

When people come together around music, there's something ancient going on. It has to come from a genuine place and that's part of the challenge. You have to cultivate that authenticity everyday.

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