People need to be more aware of how they’re affecting people.

When I was younger, I felt like I could say anything and it was funny.

Some real well thought out stuff. But I don’t know, like, every last detail about Buddhism.

I won’t sell my songs for no TV Ad.

I was always tearing stuff apart to see how it worked.

Like you’d feel if you have a cold, so I didn’t really think it was anything.

I think every person has the ability to affect change…through our every thought our every word, the way that we interact with other people.

I love the flow of the game. There’s a certain fluidity to basketball. I don’t enjoy watching baseball or football in the same way.

If someone had been asked twenty years ago what direction they thought music was going in, they wouldn’t have said sampling.

It’s pretty easy to see that… wealth doesn’t really equal happiness.

Just keep putting out music.

We just play whatever we’re into. For a while there, we weren’t listening to too much rap stuff, ’cause there wasn’t anything interesting.

I’ve started to realize that what I say and do does affect everybody around us.

Everybody has a responsibility for what they put out into the world.

If we keep bombing other people, that creates more anger. Tensions keep escalating.
