In music, you learn a lot of things when you don't know what you're doing.

I don't think anyone wants to do the same thing over and over again.

My songs, well, they are sad, but in all of them the person singing them - me or whoever - is actually still trying and hasn't given up yet.

I think one of the best things you can do is write really sad songs that touch some semblance of... I guess 'hope' is the right word?

I don't really need to appeal to some stockbroker, and I always sort of root for the underdog. I probably consider all that when I'm writing, but it's not in the forefront of my brain.

I think you just have to have some rapport with the song.

As a producer you can be more objective about the songs because you didn't write them.

It's hard to write any good song. It seems more rewarding, or maybe just easier, to write sad ones.

I don't like to think about stuff that's boring.

If you choose to not deal with an issue, then you give up your right of control over the issue and it will select the path of least resistance.

Trust me, my runners aren't going to run one event while looking past it to the second event. When they get on the line for the 10K, that's a do-or-die situation for them.

I work out, I play sports, I go to concerts.

There may be a jump on electronic LSD with virtual reality, and the problem just with saying LSD, enough time has gone by that there is no distinction between psychedelics and other drugs.

The ability to see the future can be a burden, and the younger you are and the more isolated you feel, maybe the more of a burden it is.

As slippery as smooth grapes, words exploding in the light like dormant seeds waiting in the vaults of vocabulary, alive again, and giving life: once again the heart distills them.

It is more satisfying to sacrifice oneself for the poor victim than to enable the other to overcome their victim status and perhaps become even more succesfull than ourselves

There are many ways to grow football-wise. You go slow or are pushed to go faster, otherwise you get left behind. For me, there would be trouble in stopping learning.
