I used to think success would be sustainability. Not being behind the eight ball.

If you live up against train tracks, it can make your life a living hell.

Bands-- enough with the crayon face-paint-- you're better than that.

I do feel like at the end of anger I have to have something that grounds it.

Some people never need to let up at all.

I've dreamed about performing songs, songs that don't even exist, as a complete song.

I know that the dream mind is irrational, but I like to think that if I hear something in a dream that's really good, then it's irrational... but it's not crazy.

I actually dream a lot of songs, and I try to be good about voice-memoing ideas.

I think I'd like to see CDs disappear. Too much plastic crap lying around. If I want some music these days, I'm gonna either get as MP3s or on vinyl.

I'm even old-school Instagram. I'm here for your "What did you have to eat today?" I'm fine with that.

Different views are essential for progress

Anxiety, it just stops your life.

It is often more necessary to conceal contempt than resentment; the former is never forgiven, but the later is sometimes forgotten.

I don't just talk about change. I actually have a plan to execute change and make it happen.

Every man who has seen the world knows that nothing is so useless as a general maxim.

Hopefully, kids realize you can do anything you want. Skateboarding can be that gateway.

I think photojournalism is documentary photography with a purpose.
