I think people want to put you in a box and close it away so that it makes them feel better. A lot of musicians get that.

I never really know what I'm playing. I just follow what sounds good in my head and keep going.

I realized the more I made the music for myself, the more successful I was becoming.

I gave up that idea of trying to make music that I thought other people would want. I just made music for myself and music for people that I knew.

I stayed involved with music my whole life. I was always playing with other people.

I write everything. I have that control issue with my music. That's why I'm not in a band.

I'm learning as I go. The music has drawn me out of my shell. It's made me open my door a little more and be able to look at people in the eye.

Someone asked me if I was a method actor - I loved that! I needed to know what it felt like to lose everything just to do the Bad Day video! I could really feel the angst!

I just did whatever it took to keep making music - I slept on couches. You would be amazed at how far $20 can go if you stretch it out.

The self-judging person will always judge others. The rubric we develop for ourselves, the measuring stick we put against our own mind and body, generalizes to every other human being.

Children are supposed to go to school, play on swing sets, skin their knees.

Sometimes I fear the strength of Love.!

I know I'm not to blame for what he did. And I know, too, that I am strong inside--stronger than I ever realized.

The only darkness you must fear is the the one that burns in your soul." *Chiki101*

The roof was torn off the gym. God's way of telling the jocks that they'd better remember who's really charge.

There shall be no more death, Because we have already seen all that, Its old and we are tired of it, And now we need something new, And this new thing is Eternal Life

The revolution is like a vessel filled with the pulsating heartbeat of millions of working people.

Confound you handsome young fellows! You think of having it all your own way in the world. You don't understand women. They don't admire you half so much as you admire yourselves.
