The ocean inspires me because there's the energy of the water moving.

Don't forget that love is all you came here for, not anything less. Need I say more?

I think everybody, no matter what they eat, they should eat at least fifty percent raw food. But I eat some seafood.

Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive.

Follow your heart and you won't get lost.

I used to want to be fully observational, but I'm just not that kind of writer. My process always changes depending on how, when, and where inspiration stiles me.

The mountains inspire me because they are just still and they have such a strong, quiet presence that feels very old.

If I hear a really good song it's like, oh man, I want to write a song that good. But the urge to create mostly comes from nature, weather and I think it just effects me.

Nothing has happened too fast, nothing has happened too slow. It has been a mellow rise, and I'm thankful for that. I haven't lost my head, and I haven't lost my desire to keep growing.

It's cool to be healthy now! It's cool to, like, drink fresh juices and drink Kombucha and all that stuff.

There is nothing left in your right brain, and there is nothing right in your left brain..

Enjoy things for what they are, when they are, in the moment.

Man is the only animal of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid...There is no harm in a well-fed lion. It has no ideals, no sect, no party.

Live on coffee and flowers. Try not to worry what the weather will be.

I was a Reagan backer. It was a shock for some people that I could agree with anything that man would say.

I'm very sensitive. It's always been something I'm very in tune with.

Where there is a living memory of struggle, they have a living memory of the rebellion. Where there's no struggle afterward the rebellion is forgotten.
