The drummer is stereotypically the dumb guy. Maybe that's why I always respect drummers who do more than drum.

I love Donna Summer, and I love ABBA. I love late 70s disco. I love the Bee Gees. I just love that period of recording.

I don't have perfect pitch. My drums sound like a drummer, not a drum machine.

I like stuff that sounds big and full and makes your head trip and your body react.

Love enriches my heart.

Help more than is needed.Care more than is required.Give more than is expected.Love more than is anticipated.

If I could grant wishes do you think I would be driving a cab?

It's always useful to know where a friend-and-relation is, whether you want him or whether you don't.

The self is a perpetually recreated neurobiological state.

Mangalore, the coastal Indian town where I lived until I was almost 16, is now a booming city of malls and call-centres. But, in the 1980s, it was a provincial town in a socialist country.

How idle is this prating about natural rights as though still containing all that had been forfeited.

I'm not going to date a crazy party animal; I'm more into culture. I'd rather go to a museum, travel somewhere, or go to a play. That's more interesting to me than partying at the hottest club.

It's not about what I can get, it's what I can give.

Cities, like cats, will reveal themselves at night.
