For me, how I feel about what I wrote down turns into a song.

My studio is designed for atmosphere. I have a really cozy, comfortable room that has a great, huge glass door that views my backyard.

There was a time when fast playing and fretboard pyrotechnics on the bass were important to me and when I am recording a bass track, that is still very important to me.

Invisible airwaves crackle with life Bright antennae bristle with the energy Emotional feedback on a timeless wavelength Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free

Music is all about wanting to be better at it.

And the meek shall inherit the earth.

I'm a big believer of daylight in the studio.

I guess, we were people who just dedicated to trying to get better.

I like to practice on the bass, but I don't do it as often as I should.

I have always felt I was more accurately a Hard Rock musician.

I worry about my voice 24/7 when I'm on tour. It's like a pitcher and his arm. It's constantly the thing that my whole life revolves around.

The simple fact is this: There are no neutral photographs.

I try to penetrate the lane like Steve Nash, pass like Jason Kidd, and handle the ball like Allen Iverson. Remember, I said 'try to'.

Education is understanding relationships.

I don't think your missing pieces ever fit inside you again once they go missing.

We're all mad here.

When you have police officers who abuse citizens, you erode public confidence in law enforcement. That makes the job of good police officers unsafe.

To know that God loves us in the state of grace or disgrace is the most powerful motivation to respond with the aid of grace to His loving call.

Christianity is not a purely intellectual, internal faith. It can only be lived in community.

Be drunk with Love, for Love is all that exists. Where is intimacy found if not in the give and take of Love.

There is not the least cause for worry about financial affairs; every person who wills to do so may rise above want, have all he needs, and become rich.
