I've written some poetry, but...songs have to be more poetic, and I've really gotten to this non-poetic sort of writing.

I'm always interested in mixing technology and music. You know, maybe I'll have a MIDI bass pickup at some point, I don't really think that's the direction I would want to go.

The worst thing I could be thinking is how could I be a cool bass player.

In order to have that incredible groove that makes you dream you have to think not of the groove, but of the dream.

It's really important for the bass and the drums to somehow blend.

A lot of the great songwriters in history have been collaborators, with a separate lyricist.

I built all the speaker cabinets myself.

Right after I graduated, my girlfriend, who I had been going out with for five years, dumped me, and my grandmother died.

I'm not really satisfied with anything I have written to date.

It does make sense to put on some songs that are relatively short, because radio usually only plays songs that are less than 4 or 5 minutes.

I like referring to the saxophone and having a guitar lick instead. Same with the cymbals; having the cymbals and not playing cymbals.

Belief about God is religion. Belief in God is faith.

A man and woman in search of something are always blown apart, but it's the same wind that blows them.

A leaders gentle reaction and sound instruction are their greatest weapons.

God tells us not to judge one another, no matter what anyone's sexual preferences are or if they're black, brown or purple.

Even Bill Clinton admitted Obamacare is the craziest thing in the world, where people wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half.

The deal is that women have entered the workforce, but they have not been relieved of the domestic responsibilities.

In all honesty, I have a few irons in the fire in the TV world, but mostly, I'm working on having the most amazing life I can possibly have, and hopefully my career will come along for the ride.

Sometimes things would be so much simpler if you could just pull out your gun and shoot the bad guy. Reason number seventeen why Indiana Jones is my hero.

My father taught me a good lesson: Don't get to low when things go wrong. And don't get too high when things are good.

I would rather die in America than live in England. I would rather lose a match in America than win one in England. I have come to the conclusion that I neither mean to die soon or to lose the match!
