Being so honest in my writing is cathartic.

Placebo is music for outsiders, by outsiders and our gigs are like conventions of outcasts, which is cool.

I guess the line between being paranoid and being a rock star is smaller than one would expect.

Don't let small minded people dictate how you should look and be free.

...you could be the best team or the best player in different generations and people respect each other. Nobody cares who was the best.

I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather.
