I have a lot of guitar heroes I guess, some of them are female and some of them are male. Robert Fripp is one of them, and Marc Ribot, that's another guitar hero.

I'm a bit of a vagabond - a person who loses time and space because you don't know where you are.

Putting your ego aside and confronting your weaknesses and just letting things happen is hard. Not to use a Scientology term, but it's difficult to do an emotional or an artistic audit.

I think anything that you can't poke fun at is a little too precious.

For a brief moment, I considered deconstructing the song and going down a cerebral road, but then I realized it would kill what is most powerful about it.

I don't even wanna say female guitar-players, just guitar-players, because music of all things doesn't need to be gendered and stratified, that's so boring.

I have the weirdest job. It's not every day that you get to stand up onstage and unload every ounce of your misanthropic bile onto a crowd of people, and they're like, "Cool! Hit us again!"

I wouldn't say I'm a very technical [guitar] player. I'm more intuitive - it's always more about chasing an abstraction.

All these things that we are very nostalgic for come from a place of technology dictating [art]. This time and place is no different.

An mp3 is a compressed form of data. It's not the full spectrum. It's never going to sound as good as a record.

I think one thing people forget is that every technological advance we fetishize had its place in time.

Life is full of wonder.

With a perseverance spirit, you withstand any situation.

I do not think I could myself, be brought to support a man for office, whom I knew to be an open enemy of, and scoffer at, religion.

Isn't television glamourous?

When we connect to the infinite source of wisdom within, creative new ideas, opportunities, and healing spontaneously unfold.

Justice is a contract of expediency, entered upon to prevent men harming or being harmed.

Surround yourself with what you love.

My life is very crazy and busy, but I love it that way.

If you cannot find Christ in the beggar at the church door, you will not find Him in the chalice.

My old coach used to say two points was two points.
