When I was around Bowie, I was nearing the bottom. When we were touring together, I looked at him as a kind of big-brother figure and I also looked at him as somebody I had a lot of respect for. The age and the period he's at in his life, I'd like to be there some day. He has a kind of content peace about him that's something to shoot for.

When an instrument fails on stage it mocks you and must be destroyed!

I was at my most miserable when I had everything I ever wanted.

In my life, I was always floating around the edge of the dark side and saying what if take it a little bit too far, and who says you have to stop there, and whats behind the next door. Maybe you gain a wisdom from examining those things. But after a while, you get too far down in the quicksand.

I become irritated when I am being written off as aloof or stand-offish when I'm shy and don't know what to say.

I didnt ask to save rock, I dont even like rock that much.

There's nothing like a stressful day.
