I could quite happily just make music because it conjures up a whole visual world for me in my mind.

Often times at a concert, I just close my eyes. Music is very transportive and visual for me like that.

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness, Like resignation to the end, Always the end.

Through the music I hope to give it an arc that gives it a greater sense of a journey through the set rather than a bunch of songs.

Emotionally, I feel mostly out-of-depth, like I will never quite learn how to be what I should be. And that makes me feel pretty vulnerable a lot of the time.

What makes me vulnerable? Well, my ego, probably. I kind of like to try to let go of it. Or feeling out of my depth. In various aspects of my life, whether it's musical or personal.

I feel the flame of eternity in my soul.

The thoughts I express, whether clearly or ambiguously, are my own and they are my individual responsibility.

In the Friend-place nothing true can be said. Let Me Just Be Here.

I grew up with a big family. I want that. I want to have my own family.

I'd rather clean my toilet than go to a show-business party.

When a fantasy turns you on, you're obligated to God and nature to start doing it right away.

A man had need to fear this most of all that he fears not at all.

This is all new to me, these re-releases. I don't know how these things do. I don't know if it will be people who saw it originally or young people
