As a writer, I never paid much attention to the length of titles. I've just wanted them to communicate the emotional overtones of the content of a record or song that they are describing

I don't regret the decisions or direction I've chosen, but I feel it's important to be self aware.

Time is always fleeting and the lunar phases represent that visually for me. What people take away from that and how they apply it within their own lives, that's entirely up to them.

I feel that bands can do whatever they want, after all, they own themselves and the art/music they create.

I've never been a fan of bands that go out and celebrate their age, I'd rather be celebrated for being relevant.

Genres aren't that relevant. Nearly every form of music is a melting pot of things of things.

I feel that people spend as much time skipping songs as they do listening to them in their library.

Everyday that passes I am pulled from youth as how it has been defined by that culture into something else.

Though a song may race by in a minute and a half, every aspect of it is calculated and intentional.

What I've witnessed, managers are divisive and allow musicians to become clouded, irresponsible, and unaware of the world around them.

I think everyone is strong and weak in different ways.

Do not make this practice a source of pressure, compulsion, anxiety or pride. It is none of these. Zazen is simply a way to find your true home.

I did not succeed in life by intelligence. I succeeded because I have a long attention span.

The soul, at peace, reflects the peace without, Forgetting grief as sunset skies forget The morning's transient shower.

I barely belong to this world, but still I'm participating.

I care about what people think of my heart, my music, my passion.

There is only one reason to do anything: as a statement to the universe of Who You Are.

I accept that today may be imperfect... I accept that I may be as well. What I don't accept is that imperfection should be the crutch I use to excuse myself from participating in joy.

Western people often see obscenity where there is only symbolism.

Walking beside you I want for nothing.
