It's often said that life is strange. But compared to what?

Folk-rock hasn't changed much over the decades since the Byrds started it.

You don't see a lot of difference between the Gin Blossoms and the Byrds.

There was just no way I could leave this little Martin guitar in my apartment overnight or even in the afternoon, and expect to find it there when I got back.

I wouldn't be interested in just doing a show that's mapped out and choreographed with a set list. That would've been boring so long ago it just wouldn't be any fun.

I've had an advantage; I've had a sort of open public acceptance in New York that doesn't happen to just anyone trying to make the transition you were talking about.

I'm not trying to be the new anybody.

I relate to the audiences and they know me. It's pretty real.

I just play, and I'm always trying to write songs.

And the music, as far as a type of music, it's still pretty viable.

Some of the most unhappy artists in the most difficult situations can create awe-inspiring works of art.

Scientific and philosophic truth have parted company.

It would be better for me ... that multitudes of men should disagree with me rather than that I, being one, should be out of harmony with myself.

I see the effects of sexual and gender liberation all around me, just like you do, but I don't have a sense of being in the majority.
