I like my music with the rinds and the seeds and pulp left in.

The average person spends two weeks over their lifetime waiting for the traffic light to change.

I always had a great appreciation for jazz, but I'm a very pedestrian musician. I get by. I like to think that my main instrument is vocabulary.

it ain't no sin, to take off your skin and dance around in your bones

Q: What’s hard for you? A: Mostly I straddle reality and the imagination. My reality needs imagination like a bulb needs a socket. My imagination needs reality like a blind man needs a cane. Math is hard. Reading a map. Following orders. Carpentry. Electronics. Plumbing. Remembering things correctly. Straight lines. Sheet rock. Finding a safety pin. Patience with others. Ordering in Chinese. Stereo instructions in German.

It's the same with men as with horses and dogs, nothing wants to die.

The way you do anything is the way you do everything.
