Adam [Cohen] is a great singer-songwriter in his own right.

There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.

We are not mad. We are human.We want to love, and someone must forgive us for the paths we take to love, for the paths are many and dark, and we are ardent and cruel in our journey.

I don't consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin.

I greet you from the other side of sorrow and despair, with a love so vast and shattered it will reach you everywhere.

I wish I could say everything in one word. I hate all the things that can happen between the beginning of a sentence and the end.

We are so lightly here. It is in love that we are made. In love we disappear.

May you be surrounded by friends and family, and if this is not your lot, may the blessings find you in your solitude.

We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky.

You live your life as if it's real.......a thousand kisses deep

Reality is one of the possibilities I cannot afford to ignore

All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

To do more for the world than the world does for you - that is success.

You make me come alive- too alive. It's breathless, like a disaster. Ravishing, like crossing over into the desert and losing your bearings. Nothing's the same again.

When I was 14 years old, I was by no means trying to work professionally at all.

San Francisco is really fun and liberal, and it's my kind of politics. It's like being Jewish in front of Jewish people.

Be phenomenal or be forgotten!

I get so tired of moral bookkeeping.

It is only when aggression is legitimate that one can expect prodigies of valour.

It's not the genius who is 100 years ahead of his time but average man who is 100 years behind it.

More drills for poor readers do not work.
