I think with the live shows it's giving you that opportunity to do something on stage that you don't normally do.

I think that in school I was really shy. And even today when people meet me they are shock to see just how not-crazy I am.

I think with each record, I don't know ... they're like burdens.

The songs that give you the most trouble become your best songs.

You go through that stage where you're coming up with the concept, ideas and all that you need to make a record. It always feels like hard labor.

It sometimes takes 6 months or more after you've written and recorded it before you can start to enjoy the experience of singing the song.

We are not as frail as the strings would make us believe.

I was always 'awake'...Some part of me clamoring for NEW insights and NEW ways to make the world a better place.

When playing music, it is possible to achieve a unique sense of peace.

An organized product of nature is that in which all the parts are mutually ends and means.

There's no rule, no law, no regulation that says you can't come back. So I have every right to come back.

Strengthen your strengths and hire your weaknesses.

I think in the past I think I probably was a little too diverse, probably went from one spectrum to the complete opposite and confusing people.

The man who realizes his ignorance has taken the first step toward knowledge.

I can't really describe a trick as much as I just feel it.

Each close you use should be an educational process by which you are able to raise the value in the prospect's mind.
