I thought my goal in life was to be in a successful band, and I had got that, but I was as miserable as I had ever been, and I couldn't understand why that would be.

Any time I sit down and write music, the first part of that is always centering myself and thinking about who I currently am.

I really try to put myself in uncomfortable situations. Complacency is my enemy.

Books are better than movies because you design the set the way you want it to look.

My moral standing is lying down.

I think, fundamentally, music is something inherently people love and need and relate to, and a lot of what's out right now feels like McDonalds. It's quick-fix. You kind of have a stomachache afterwards.

I want to do something that matters.
