For me, it's always been important to have the live band be one thing, and the recorded band be kind of another thing.

Music is much more of a multimedia sort of thing than I expected.

There are a million things out there every single day that trigger me - songs, smells, even the season that we're in, fall. Something about the air.

It's so easy to hate something. It's harder to genuinely appreciate something.

I'm glad that, despite everything, I was able to get work done and finish something. I never finish anything. So just being able to finish record and to make music is a great gift.

A record is worth 10,000 live shows.

There are just some things that you can't deny.

All I'm trying to do is make music that people like and that makes people happy.

I am super-interested in fashion. I love being a person whose clothes get discussed. That makes it more interesting for me.

I'm like part of the Kurt Cobain school of writing lyrics, which is the syntax of the words is more important than... is where it all comes from.

If I play Coachella, it's sponsored by a company - that's corporate, too. But we're playing it because we're getting paid and we want to be a part of the festival.

It is by continuing to put out good work that the artist best shows his gratitude.

The beauty of adversity is that when we hit bottom, the only way to go is up.

Death for the Christian is the doorway to heaven’s glory. Because of Christ’s resurrection we can joyously say with Paul, “Where, O death, is your victory?” [1 Corinthians 15:55 NIV].

It doesn’t matter. He deserves toknow how he impacted your life

My love was alive, not because I was loved, but because I myself loved!

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery.

I'd like to bring magic back to the place it used to be 100 years ago.

Once lost, trust can only be regained if we are as good as our word.

I can't believe I got a major-label record deal. My music was quirky, and my voice was so odd and high and girlish, it was like a weird novelty act.

Each moment in time we have it all, even when we think we don't.
