Galleries are becoming overwhelmed with psychedelic music/art. I like it; it's a good direction, a new blurring of the lines between what you do.

You can't be both a painter and a musician and master anything. You can't. And live a life.

Words, for me, don't have as much contextual leeway as sound.

I love a lot of people in bands and people doing weird art stuff, but i will always forget someone and i don't really want to be part of stamping the boundaries on a scene.

I have always felt a little held back by working with other people in recording.

I am a musician before a writer, and a drawer before a writer. When I lose sight of that, which I do, my work tends to suffer.

I hope to incorporate more variety of beats, more syncopation. It becomes very easy to play straight beats; straight rock is alluring.

Maybe people are finally tiring of watered down grunge rock on the radio.

I try to drum each day. It's therapeutic.

It's really nice to have things to mail to people when they mail you things, or trade to people at shows. Something homemade, it feels... down to earth.

I feel that music is more flexible than language and your song, or "piece" is only as flexible as your least flexible component.

Like opium, nerve annihilation stretches up my veins to pump incinerating anguish through my body.

Our voices, our service, and our abilities are to be employed, primarily, for the glory of God.

We have believed-and we do believe now-that freedom is indivisible that peace is indivisible that economic prosperity is indivisible.

There is nothing quite like a freshly brewed pot of tea to get you going in the morning.

The problem with the war in Iraq is not so much the intelligence as the stupidity.

Young ghetto boys thought that in this society, the good guys lost and the bad guys won.

They flat their fifths, we drink ours.

I'm not necessarily intimidated by really jocky guys. I can talk football with them, you know what I mean?

I'm lucky enough to split my time between the field and the office. Some land surveyors in larger outfits can work mostly from behind a desk, managing many field crews at once.

An ecosystem that has the maximum amount of diversity is the richest.
