Some writing and production projects will be a great way to spend my elderly rock years.

My studio is designed for atmosphere. I have a really cozy, comfortable room that has a great, huge glass door that views my backyard.

There was a time when fast playing and fretboard pyrotechnics on the bass were important to me and when I am recording a bass track, that is still very important to me.

Invisible airwaves crackle with life Bright antennae bristle with the energy Emotional feedback on a timeless wavelength Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free

Music is all about wanting to be better at it.

And the meek shall inherit the earth.

I'm a big believer of daylight in the studio.

I guess, we were people who just dedicated to trying to get better.

I like to practice on the bass, but I don't do it as often as I should.

I have always felt I was more accurately a Hard Rock musician.

I worry about my voice 24/7 when I'm on tour. It's like a pitcher and his arm. It's constantly the thing that my whole life revolves around.

There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.

To be remembered is, I think, a basic human right. Not one that occurs to a person when it is there, but like a parched throat in the desert when it is gone.

Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.

I'm learning a lot about myself being alone, and doing what I'm doing.

A novel is what you dream in your night sleep. A novel is not waking thoughts although it is written and thought with waking thoughts.

Everybody loses a couple, and you either pack it up and go home or you keep on fighting.

If you burn your neighbors house down, it doesn't make your house look any better.

People who are meditating every day and involved in a serious spiritual practice don't usually wake up in the morning and want to rush out to eat a bunch of junk food.

I feel like the luckiest guy on the planet. But, I literally work all day, every day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, and that's not an exaggeration.

Take the whole universe all at once and put it on your eyelashes.
