Things have changed. The suburbs are developed, but other parts, like where we recorded Spirit and Danse Manatee are still woodland and farmland.

Hell is a swamp, to me - not as something fiery, but as something dank, moist, and wet.

I think it's cool to give people encouragement.

I didn't really know why I wanted to go to college. I didn't really have a reason to go there other than the fact that everybody else was doing it.

I'm not against being proud of where you come from but I feel like sometimes the divisions are a little too bold and it hurts us more than it helps us.

Music can be so manipulating - especially in terms of horror. It's such an important part of building the tension.

I think we stumbled onto our own sort of lore back in high school. We weren't with the drinkers, we were more the psychedelic warriors. We sat around watching horror films.

Forcing someone into drug addiction is like stabbing a corpse everyday, the most detestable crime.

Don't be so hard on yourself....that's what a loofah's for

I think comedy is a good way to help people change their minds. I think that if you're laughing and getting a message across, it's a lot easier than when somebody is screaming in your face.

Our nation was built by pioneers - pioneers who accepted untold risks in pursuit of freedom, not by pioneers seeking offshore profits at the expense of American workers here at home.

The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world.

We spent a lot of time on the beach when I was young so I'd also take pictures of seaweed and crabs.

A little Isadora Duncan and a little Butoh this was choreography and performing that was simultaneously both lush and spare.

It is my great hope that our paths, however long and winding, will cross again.

Did you ever think how a bit of land shows the character of the owner?

There should not be a party within a party.
