We love playing music but were too weird to play music.

I think that most of the people I'm dealing with, they're a lot like me. So I'm not pushing people that don't want to do something; most of the people have a billion things going on, and they love it.

Keeping perspective and being happy and being energetic and being creative - that's all tied to being healthy.

The 'cool' record store. It is where you can talk to people who are like you. They look like you, think like you and, most tellingly like the same music as you - the only comparable experience these days would probably be an art museum - an actual place where you can stand and simply be surrounded by your heroes.

I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.

We wish that we could take magic drugs, play around all day, read, and do nothing strenuous, and be the smartest, happiest people in the world. The truth is, it's all about sweat.

Without art, without communicating, we wouldn't live beyond 30 because we'd be so sad and depressed.
