Occasionally there are people who are not like me, and I forget that they're more introverted or shy, or just don't want to make a decision so quickly.

Life is worth celebrating and worth living even though we're all headed to the same hole at the end of the day.

We don't ever want to shut down and say, I'm afraid to go that far down the road because there's going to be pain. There'll be beauty, too, and if you stop here, you stop all that.

I think if you're lucky, you start to make music and it gets things out.

Music is amazing. There's some metaphysical comfort where it allows you to be isolated and alone while telling you that you are not alone... truly, the only cure for sadness is to share it with someone else.

We hear so many records these days that are done with click tracks, as opposed to a drummer.

I think that's what centers me the most - all my people, all my animals.
