I wasn't originally a bass player. I just found out I was needed, because everyone wants to play guitar.

Richard Lloyd of Television is one of my favorite guitarists. His mentor was Jimi Hendrix when he was just 14. Jimi was always pounding everything he knew into that kid.

Even the Beatles found it hard to escape their image; they were trapped by it.

Stick to your instincts.

I'm not going to hold my breath because life goes on. Life is too short to sit around moaning about what could have been or what was.

You learn just as much from your failures. Sometimes you love your failures even more.

Sometimes you don't want to be a slapstick clown in order to convey a funny perception of the world.
