I wasn't making music for the sake of music but rather making music in the context of other music. At the same time, it doesn't mean I'm not going to try and do that some day.

As I get older, I realize a lot of the things I could have done - things that I didn't think were so great at the time - actually would have been enjoyable.

Skepticism is only a time-based reality, and as an ultimate reality, it's always wrong, because everything always happens.

Musically, I just think in terms of what's next. There's a lot of things I've always dreamed of doing, and I hope I get to them before I get too deaf.

You wind up listening to one song that you really like 30 times on YouTube and then you're done with it. That's the way it is.

Most people just give up with time and go, "I'm a victim." The only reason I've got the reputation for delays and spending a long time on things is because I just don't stop.

I buy magazines. I'm not floating around in my own universe. I'm interested in everything.

I don't feel bound by the ebbs and flows of musical trends, or what's happening with new music in general.

We've had incredibly huge obstacles in our way - no tapes, no royalties, no cooperation on any level - and we sort it out.

I do need to loosen up a bit, and that usually does come with old age. That's the intention.

Even I just listen to some bands on YouTube. I'll think, "Oh, I quite like that, I should buy it someday," but I don't get around to buying half the stuff I liked.

But then again, I shouldn't judge. That is, after all, my pet peeve.

Orozco's despair was not just in finding himself poor, but in discovering that effort, honest intentions, and gentlemanly status had nothing to do with sucess in a commercial economy.

To a homeless man, home is literally where the heart is.

I chose to stay with him for all the things that he had done right and not to leave him for the one thing that he had done wrong.

He's got everything. He' not a great player yet because he hasn't won any major championships, but it's a matter of time. He's an outstanding talent. I didn't realize how tall he is.

The willingness to learn new skills is very high.

I'm gonna be unemployed when people read this. Ha.

My dad would tell me to, 'Play for those who couldn't play.' So my motivation is for people who struggle in life daily.

Replace your pursuit of success with the pursuit of contribution.

Remember God so much that you are forgotten. Let the caller and the called disappear; be lost in the Call.
