“Well, don’t we all feel like jumping to the end of the world sometimes?”

I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.

My secrets must be poetic to be believable.

I don’t want to be my extrovert self all the time.

The past is a great place and I don’t want to erase it or to regret it, but I don’t want to be its prisoner either.

All dancing is a replacement for sex.

Don’t take life too seriously and always remember: it is just a passing fad.

I don’t know if rock is dying. I wouldn’t want to say that, but the world does change. Nothing stays the same.

Normally I am not so violent. Everything comes from the question: Where will I die? It is a strong concern.

Too much is never enough.

Don’t you think it’s sometimes wise not to grow up.

People think they know you. They know the things about you that you have forgotten.

In England they always try out new mobile phones in Isle of Man. They’ve got a captive society. So I said, you should try the legalization of all drugs on the Isle of Man and see what happens.

Only a madman or an actor would want to be President of the United States.

You have to sing every day so you can build up to being, you know, Amazingly Brilliant.

I don’t think enjoying life is an exclusive prerogative of young people.

I’m not the businessman. I don’t deal with the business at all. Not anymore. Occasionally, every four years or five years, they tell me I’ve run out of money, I have to go and make some more.

I will bring you all of my dead flowers if you will breathe me a promise of spring.

We live only to die yet we’re dying to live.

You were the best and worst nights of my life fucking while the flames lick us at least you’re a distraction from my spiritual death. You’re a god damn angel in a crack den.

If death comes to claim us, my soul will wander until we meet again.

She greets death with a curtsy.

And when our dreams died my life could finally begin.

It might sound cliche but with the dying of another day, I’m close to walking away as my mind is leading me astray.

Sometimes I lay down at night and wonder if it’s time to lay down my life.
