“I need to be able to rock out.”

Out of the dragon’s claws and into the fire, there’s a moment in every man’s life when he must decide what is wrong and what is right.

There is little sense in attempting to change external conditions, you must first change inner beliefs, then outer conditions will change accordingly.

Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure. When you conquer negative attitudes of doubt and fear you conquer failure.

Music became my focus. At 13, I was jamming with my mates. At 15, I was playing clubs.

Thoughts are things; they have tremendous power. Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure.

I only write music for myself, I don’t try and appeal to anyone else.

I think I’m better behind the camera than I am in front.

I always just wanted to be the singer or the bass player in the band. I’d love to have a band, where I was obviously the singer, but where it wasn’t me, it wasn’t my name.

The thing that was most interesting to me was getting my first prints back from the printer and realizing photography doesn’t end with the click of a button, it starts there. Printing is so exciting.

It cuts like a knife, but it feels so right.

She says that her love for me would never die, but that would change if she found out about you and I.

Thoughts crystallize into habit and habit solidifies into circumstances.

I always knew I’d be in music in some sort of capacity. I didn’t know if I’d be successful at it, but I knew I’d be doing something in it. Maybe get a job in a record store. Maybe even play in a band. I never got into this to be a star.

I never had a long-term plan.

I feel quite sad for the young musicians coming up because they may never get to pay their rent properly. It doesn’t matter what the genre; nowadays, it’s so much harder than it ever was.

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live? Can you take what you need, but take less than you give? Could you close every day, without the glory and fame? Could you hold your head high, when no-one knows your name?

I need not hate any man; he cannot hurt me. I need not flatter any man; he has nothing to give me.

You’ve got to expect things are going to go wrong. And we always need to prepare ourselves for handling the unexpected.

The need to communicate effectively with your customers will come up again and again.

Remember that very little is needed to make a happy life.

I find out what the world needs. Then I go ahead and try to invent it.

The best customer service is if the customer doesn’t need to call you, doesn’t need to talk to you. It just works.

The true price of leadership is the willingness to place the needs of others above your own.

I’ve realized that somebody who’s tired and needs a rest, and goes on working all the same is a fool.
