“You have to get up and plant the seed and see if it grows, but you cant just wait around, you have to water it and take care of it.”

I wanted to get my recording and become a musician again, work; with other people, do that kind of thing because I kind of got away from that for a while once we started happening, you know, selling records, sold out concerts.

It’s very important that people realize: the air is being taken away, the oceans are being taken away, the room is being taken away, but we’re so worried about gas prices that we don’t even see this stuff.

Once you lose that musician part -not just the playing, I’m talking about musician attitude- then you’re lost, man. Especially if you started out that way. It feels so good to be back, starting from the ground up.

Funk is the absence of any and everything you can think of, but the very essence of all that is. And saying that, I’m saying funk is anything that we create in our minds that we want to do, what we want to be, but we don’t have the resources.

I like being out front, doing what I do, but then I also like playing in a band too. I’d like to do stuff like I did with Deee-lite. I went out and played with them and they were the stars, that was cool.

I wanna keep creating those situations for myself so I don’t have to be out front all the time. Then when I do have to be out front, I can do it to the max.

Usually when I’m out doing stuff, I’m just out in the wild, doing the wild thing. I don’t really get a chance to just chill out until I come here, in my creative space.

Love finds us where we are, not where we were.

Each individual in fact has moral responsibility for the acts which he personally performs; no one can be exempted from this responsibility, and on the basis of it everyone will be judged by God himself.

Life is a peephole, a single tiny entry onto a vastness–how can I not dwell on this brief, cramped view of things? This peephole is all I’ve got!

We have given our creations more power than we have, and that to me is dumb.

I used to draw stickmen with star glasses when I was at school. I didn’t realise that would end up being me! The whole idea was that the glasses had mirrors, and if a youngster looked at me, they’d see themselves. Everybody is a star.

Nowadays, it’s like two different arenas, recording and touring. When I started way back in the day, doing both was nothing, you didn’t have to think about it, the road and recording.

Where´s my leadin´ lady? Let me try this new love scene on you, baby.

If you drag your shoe a bit those plastic spikes or rubber spikes can be almost as bad as metal spikes.

I’m really into tall boots. I just got some new ones from Michael Kors that have these little gold studs. I have Valentino ones that I really love. Real, real tall boots!

It slid away from his left boot which was poised with the trigger cocked

There comes a time when what is needed is not just rhetoric, but boots on the ground.

I always love to dress up, but I usually end up in a leather jacket and boots!

When you see someone putting on his Big Boots, you can be pretty sure that an Adventure is going to happen.

Everybody needs a pair of six-inch heeled boots in their winter wardrobe.

When natural inclination develops into a passionate desire, one advances towards his goal in seven-league boots.
