These people are artists. These people are musicians. They're taking it out and trying to express it that way.

I was always trying to do different things to entertain people. And, at the same time I think I was, whether subconsciously or not, trying to get kicked out of school because I hated it so much.

And that's the type of thing I'm trying to speak out against the most, religion controlling what we see and what we do in our personal lives, even if you're not a part of that religion. Antichrist Superstar[the album] is a challenge really, to traditional morality and it's...to make people question that and make people think about different perspectives.

Most of the people who attend these openings are artists, musicians and students; now they can come see a show and actually afford to take some of the pieces home with them.

It's for people who can't market their own pieces, but who are still legitimate artists, musicians and writers.

As you keep getting more popular people are continually wanting more from you and it seems to me that all they want in the end is your death.
