I'd like to be writing songs for other people - I just like writing songs.

People fall in love with a person, not a gender or an age.

Buy my album because... it's the kind of music you can be friends with. And it's the only way that *pause* aliens won't come to Earth and destroy us. I am sure of this.

There's nothing more badass than being who you are.

Hope for everything, expect nothing.

My name's Darren. I'm a musician, part time idiot. That's a full time job actually.

My biggest fear? My biggest fear would be turning into an inanimate object.

I don't believe in guilty pleasures. If I like it, I don't feel guilty about it

Never let what is popular actually define your taste or interests.

The power of a smile goes a long way. My mom taught me that.

Chris Colfer... he's like a... playful wood-nymph.

History never repeats itself, historians do.

Dirty politicians, corrupt leaders and thieves are sent to the Ugandan parliament and state house by lazy Ugandans who don’t go to vote.

I felt that chess... is a science in the form of a game... I consider myself a scientist. I wanted to be treated like a scientist.

I had been told I was on the road to hell, but I had no idea it was just a mile down the road with a dome on it.

Like winds and sunsets, wild things were taken for granted until progress began to do away with them

It's about sharing. You just give what you have to give wherever you go, and you let God handle the rest.

I don't want to work on stuff I don't like.

Tho' you're tired and weary Still journey on, till you come to your happy abode, Where all you love you've been dreaming of Will be there, at the end of the road.

People need to feel safe to talk without their ideas being criticized, judged, demeaned, or mocked.

I think all happiness depends on the energy to assume the mask of some other life, on a re-birth as something not one's self.
