For each film, you try to create a whole world sonically, having a sense of identity through instruments used, or recording techniques.

And when the day arrives I'll become the sky and I'll become the sea and the sea will come to kiss me for I am going home. Nothing can stop me now.

If you have something to say, then say it. Express yourself and break the rules.

An integral part of any relationship is knowing that you could be killed in your sleep at any time.

My music has been a sort of personal therapy. It's got me out of tough times, it has been the friend that I needed, when I didn't have a friend there.

Sometimes I think I spend my whole life trying to figure out where I fit in.

Today's political climate does not allow the luxury of apathy.

I was at my most miserable when I had everything I ever wanted.

My doctor says, 'You've got one of the hardest ones to treat because it's not bipolar, it's not up and down, you're always just about a quart low in the mood department.

All I want to do is be normal. But really, it's other people who won't let me be that way.

All the things that are now worrying you can be put into a smile which shows your love of God.

It's my duty to enlighten people.

I'm not into the whole showbiz scene.

Nobody is gonna love you like you.
