I never looked at music as a serious ven­ture. There was very little encouragement from my family. I didn't have anybody to entertain, so it was hard to get motivated.

I saw a crow building a nest, I was watching him very carefully, I was kind of stalking him and he was aware of it. And you know what they do when they become aware of someone stalking them when they build a nest, which is a very vulnerable place to be? They build a decoy nest. It's just for you.

My reality needs imagination like a bulb needs a socket. My imagination needs reality like a blind man needs a cane.

I was always laughing in church.

Well, it's either kiss me or kill me, that's how I see it.

The things you absorb you will ultimately secrete. It's all out there and available for you to enjoy...and be nourished by.

If you get far enough away you'll be on your way back home.
