I know that is absolutely true for people when they are young - you don't want to be alive if the things that you love in your life aren't there.

Your life is built on when love dies.

I embrace the idea that I'm an entertainer.

I remember when my father was dying, I remember listening to Bjork, and listening to John Coltrane, and these things, and I don't know why but music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up just a little bit.

You want to be influenced by the world because it has so many cool things about it, but it also has a bunch of bad things about it.

I would say anybody who's willing to listen to Dark Side of the Moon and watch The Wizard of Oz is already a very sensitive, creative person.

I think some of the musicians are more like punk rock musicians. It's like an art as opposed to being a musician. It's definitely more radical psychedelic bands, more than anything.
