Occasionally I like a really good pair of shoes. A pair of leather shoes from Gieves & Hawkes in England, Buckshot Brogue, they look really sick.

Hoodies are definitely street wear, no doubt. It's amazing how hoodies have become such an important staple in people's wardrobes.

I always played soccer in Adidas, but I always wore Nikes. I love street sportswear.

You get paid and you get venerated and worshipped for pretending to be somebody else.

We never considered ourselves part of the goth thing.

Peace on earth and good will toward men - that is something we need to work on. Like Nelson Mandela, we should learn from him.

I used to make all my clothes when I was in Southern Death Cult [the first incarnation of The Cult]. I still make things to wear on stage and I am involved with sketching, choosing fabric, cutting.

I celebrate the spirit of Christmas. It's the winter solstice celebration, rebirth and new possibilities.

Usually when I see Matthew [McConaughey] at a show, he'll be down in front with his shirt off with two beers just going mental, lit up and having an amazing time.

You come out of a working-class environment, you know, working-class kids always put them themselves together because it's one of the only things they had. You had control of your image.

I didn't join a band. I didn't start a band. I got asked to do it. It kinda happened by accident.

Dream big and never give up on those dreams. Who knows where they'll take you?

Demons? No problem. Just find your local stalker psycho and ask the whistling dear head hanging above his fireplace how many licks on a toostie pop does it take to make a demon go away.

Jordan Mullen is looking at me like I'm something he wants to scrape off his shoe and right then my heart breaks, but somehow beats on.

Do little but be consistent.

Exhilaration of life can be found only with an upward look. This is an exciting world. It is cram-packed with opportunity. Great moments wait around every corner.

I thank heaven we have had baseball in this world... the kids... our national pastime.

You have to clean out the pig barn every week because you know your pigs are in there doing their jobs every day.

I'm very open in terms of sharing bits about my life, but I think it's very easy to get a distorted sense of who anyone is through social media.

I've never been a big soloist; I just put in what needs to be there. I'm more of a rhythm player who plays lead - or tries to play lead.

Man must be able to escape civilization if he is to survive. Some of his greatest needs are for refuges and retreats where he can recapture for a day or a week the primitive conditions of life.
