I listen to nothing or classical music just because after being in the studio for twelve hours, the last thing you want to do is listen to anything.

I think a lot of people misinterpret what I'm doing because they think of it as just a joke or they think of it as disposable.

If something was confusing or difficult, then it was a positive thing. Confusion is a positive.

I honestly and truly love and believe in what I'm making, and it's not a joke, whereas some people would take a singer-songwriter sitting behind an acoustic guitar as sincere.

The things I'm making and doing I really like and think are interesting; I'm drawn to them.

It was cool to feel this global electronic thing happening. But it just got to be too much at a certain point.

Hip-hop is interesting, but American pop music doesn't have the kind of diversity that the UK does.

If you want to make something that's aggressive and challenging and peculiar and strange and trying to step outside of a traditional approach, some people aren't going to like it.

I wanted to make something that raised questions and was completely different and challenged the way most people experienced electronic music. So some people don't like me; that's OK.

I liked it when there was a certain amount of people who did not like what I was doing. If anything, I thought that was a positive thing.

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

Today is hard but who cares, by each hard day we are making stair for us.

Discipline is needed in our pursuit.

Your mind cannot possibly understand God. Your heart already knows. Minds were designed for carrying out the orders of the heart.

We are born helpless. As soon as we are fully conscious we discover loneliness.

Men need rule books. Women want men to intuit what they want. And only about 2% of men can do that, and most of them are not heterosexual.

I give it up to women who have the power to keep their spirit alive under very difficult circumstances.

Because life constantly poses challenges, living demands courage

When you collaborate, you have to be willing to scrap a lot.
