In my perfect world, I get to be a professional musician and still go to Trader Joe’s.

I think we’re always looking for ways to inject a sense of humor into our music.

If I have experienced something in my life, it’s probably going to be written about, and I don’t particularly care if the person I’m writing about wants to be written about.

There’s no other person I like working with as much as my sister.

I mainly try to foster long-term collaborative relationships.

I am not a very superstitious person, but I do believe in mental preparation.

It’s always important to be checking in with people you love.

I have nothing against reverb.

Your time and attention are two of your most precious commodities.

Keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own concern, and be clear that what belongs to others is their business and none of yours.

In solitude we give passionate attention to our lives, to our memories, to the details around us.

Attention is the new currency.
