I was happy in Dublin because it is very cosmopolitan.

Before my accident I was a little too... selfish and self-absorbed and for me, to now be at the place where I can kinda give back and inspire people. I'm blessed. I'm really blessed.

And more importantly, I wouldnt be the person I am today, I wouldnt be where I am now and I may not even have been here if it wasnt for the accident.

Some people say that practice makes perfect but I just feel that the repetition works against me and I start thinking too far ahead during a show.

Thinking about what songs are coming next instead of just relaxing, breathing and playing from my heart. Sometimes it can get to be almost like the enemy.

Just the same way I'd say a prayer before going onstage, taking that even further and using the drum to inspire people. And using that as a vehicle for the intention.

I really don't feel any strong allegiance to any country.

I have never been one for the over-the-top.

Today's storms help you appreciate tomorrow’s sunshine.

An affected health has come in contact with worry

Apparently even the most awful tragedies, and the people they'd ruined, got a little stale after a while.

You don't want your kids to hear songs of this nature... But you take em to the movies to watch Schwarzenegger!

Yes I say that I am enlightened. What does that mean? It means I live in a condition of light...There really is no primary self anymore.

When you are a pit bull, and you love what you do and you are going to continue to grow, that talent will find its way out.

Look at government programs for the past fifty years. Every single one - except warfare - achieved the exact opposite of its announced goal.

You should be able to look at me and see my work. You should be able to look at my work and see me.

Every verse a diamond, every chorus gold, the sound was my salvation. It was only everything, before money became king.

Work to make a living; serve to make a life.
