I don't think it's inherently wrong when bands do certain things - sometimes I'm really excited when I see a band has taken a big ad or sync.

I hate it when bands change between records. They're thinking before they make music.

Twitter has to be about art. It can't be about banal things. Banal things and art are two different worlds.

Reverb does that thing where you make one sound and it grows to 20 times its original size and fills everything up.

Music is about your feelings.

We almost don't want to play bigger shows than where we are now. It's kind of perfect.

When I'm on a stage, I don't feel like this dude who's sitting here drinking Amstel Lights. I'm trying to temporarily become something else that can deliver a feeling.

The shows are the main way our lives have changed.

The word is like an object - we were thinking "bloom," "doom." It encapsulated tons: the bloom, the end of the bloom, and then coming back the next year.

You have been my friend... And that in itself is a tremendous thing.

Often what people don't say or leave out, tells the real story.

We know that the world is not resting on the horn of a bull

Thoughts which have no chance of succeeding do not take the trouble to come into your head at all.

Hey sexy boy, set me free, don't be so shy, play with me My dirty boy, can't you see, you are the one for meeeee.

Successful minds work like a gimlet--to a single point.

I don't even like holding them. Whenever I hold a gun, I want to get it out of my hand as quick as possible.

Why are women immobile? Because so many feel like they’re waiting for someone to say, "You’re good, you’re pretty, I give you permission."

When you stand on the victory stand, you must be able to ask yourself: 'Did I win this medal?'

That Bill Clinton. He probably doesn't know how to log on to the Internet.
