Thankfully, I'm not put in a position where I'm made to feel like I can't live my life.

I'll acknowledge that I'm from Canada but I don't think I'll acknowledge that I'm Canadian.

I don't want to over think anything because the second I do, I start to fail.

I just think if you're gonna play a show you should try and look nice.

I like writing stories. That's what I like to do. That's the way I see it, but with every song I get sucked into feeling something.

The act of writing... is the act of trying to understand why my opinion is what it is. And ultimately, I think that's the same experience the reader has when they pick up one of my books.

He is annoyed with their lack of interest, their blithe ignorance of the arbitrary genetic lottery that has granted them their privileged lives.

Photography through the camera is an instrument of detection. We photograph not only what we know, but also what we don't know.

To save the human race and our world, we must correct the evolutionary mistakes by changing the genetics of men.

When we are willing to stay even a moment with uncomfortable energy, we gradually learn not to fear it.

The diffusion of taste is not the same thing as the improvement of taste.
