You don't know how much artists go through to make it look so easy. It's all in the practice.

When I have a creative insight, there is a high. I think back in the day, I made music as much as I did because it made me feel so good. I think you could argue that there is a creative addiction - but, you know, the healthy kind.

Reality is easy. It's deception that's the hard work.

From the first time someone says, Who do you think you are? we learn how to repress.

I do support artists standing by their beliefs and walking with integrity. We have to find a better way to commercially exploit music while giving artists their proper respect. This cannot be done while taking their contributions for granted or trying to control the scope of their growth and power through threats and fear tactics.

I don't know anybody that's not emotionally unstable or schizophrenic.
