With some bands, there's a fear that if people do other things, the band is going to change and not hold it together. That's kind of sad; if you love someone, set them free, right?

Everything alive must die. Every building built to the sky will fall. Don't try to tell me my everlasting love is a lie.

I don't like being in public with headphones on. I don't know how people can do it. It seems like you're so cut off from your environment. I feel like I'd get hit by a car.

What you once were isn't what you want to be anymore.

I still love poetic imagery. I love the idea of using surrealist speak to generate lyrical content and I love the way English can be exciting in and of itself.

You have to learn how to die if you wanna be alive.

Anybody who'd expend energy preventing people from hearing music seems not to understand the basic principal of making music in the first place. It's so antithetical to being a musician.

Treating your audience like thieves is absurd. Anyone who chooses to listen to our music becomes a collaborator.

I really enjoy playing solo acoustic. I think it's good for me as a songwriter to stay in touch with what it takes to make a song work by yourself.

We live in a connected world now. Some find that frightening. If people are downloading our music, they're listening to it. The internet is like radio for us.

Because of the green-eyed one, I see red and that makes me blue.

No one knows how to write a novel until it's been written

The way Pixar has always worked is that we think of an idea and then we make it. We don't develop lots of ideas and then pick one.

Often when we ask for advice, we don't really want advice-we want someone to say "That's great! Go for it!"

Maybe love isn’t supposed to be comfortable. Maybe love is just supposed to be worth it.

To be honest I am not lookin to be romantic, already got someone at home

I have a strong will to love you for eternity.

They grew up on the outside of society. They weren't looking for a fight. They were looking to belong.

My girlfriends are my life, but I'm also one of those girls who can hang out with the guys.

That which you cannot express is Love. That which you cannot reject/renounce is Beauty. That which you cannot avoid is the Truth.
