Most of the songs I write are just very directly from my life. I don't have a big imagination. Whenever I tried to write from fantasy, it comes out sounding really fake.

I have no interest in emo. I'm all about rap metal.

With each step I take, I see that my ability to perform gets a little better. So until it starts getting worse, I'm going to keep moving forward.

I think there is a very subtle shift from the metal I grew up on to Weezer. I think the big shift was from a minor key to a major key. That made a huge difference in how it was perceived.

It could appear that I'm some kind of natural genius, but it's just a million small lessons I've picked up over the years.

I never feel guilty about liking music.

It is cool to have a label head that is also a songwriter, in a band, and produces records.

I'm constantly fighting with my manager to reduce the amount of time I have to spend on promotional activities, so I can get back in the studio and work on new music.

Being homeless is like living in a post-apocalyptic world. You're on the outskirts of society.

I do not think I have ever seen anything more beautiful than the bluebell I have been looking at. I know the beauty of our Lord by it.

While Kuwait is not a democracy, giving only half the population a voice in their government is not a policy this Congress should support and one that I am glad that Kuwait's leaders are changing.

While I enjoy and have enjoyed great success building my own personal apparel and accessories collections, my greatest passion has and will always be real estate.

The secret of the magic of life consists in using action in order to attain non-action. One must not wish to leap over everything and penetrate directly.

A mathematical proof must be perspicuous.

There is not a more mean, stupid, dastardly, pitiful, selfish, spiteful, envious, ungrateful animal than the Public. It is the greatest of cowards, for it is afraid of itself.

Dude, writing, acting and directing are such easy jobs. But to do them all as awesomely as Zach Braff does, well that... that's something.
