“I’m always amazed that people take what I say seriously. I don’t even take what I am seriously.”

Confront a corpse at least once. The absolute absence of life is the most disturbing and challenging confrontation you will ever have.

Some people are marching together and some on their own. Others are running, the smaller ones crawl. But some sit in silence.

In your fear, seek only peace. In your fear, seek only love.

I’ve never responded well to entrenched negative thinking.

I’m just an individual who doesn’t feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I’m working for me.

I could never, ever talk to my father. I really loved him, but we couldn’t talk about anything together. There was this really British thing that being even remotely emotional was absolutely verboten.

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.

I have found myself deeply, deeply intrigued by the ska-punk scene. It’s such an expressive form of popular music, it’s so real, it’s got so much life: it’s the most vital music in the world.

I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.

Make the best of every moment. We’re not evolving. We’re not going anywhere.

The media is either our salvation or our death.

I don’t make changes to confuse anyone. I’m just searching. That’s what causes me to change. I’m just searching for myself.

Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.

I’m drawn between the light and dark.

Rock has always been the devil’s music… I believe that rock & roll is dangerous… I feel that we’re only heralding something even darker than ourselves.

Speak in extremes, it’ll save you time.

I don’t even remember if he hurt me with even one punch. Amazing what the result is.

Christina Aguilera has her own style, so good on her. I don’t think anyone’s every told her to put on some leather chaps and get her noonie out. She’s an amazing singer but a lot of her music I can’t even hear.

I love Carrie Fisher, and it would be amazing to carry on her legacy.

To me the most important thing is getting into a studio and making an album that is 12 or 14 amazing songs, getting up onstage, and making people happy by livening the rock.

I don’t think I’m such an amazing person who needs to be written about.

I feel like I’ve lost so many amazing traits because I’ve listened to stupid people, ignorant people who are bullies.

Exercise is amazing, from the inside out. I feel so alive and have more energy.

My fans and followers are so amazing.
