"I leave a lot open so I can fill it in later. If I don't have any ideas right away, I can fill it in later."

“Stern daughter of the voice of God! OÂ Duty! if that name thou love Who art a light to guide, a rod To check the erring and reprove.”
“My friends always joke that I run on batteries.”
“So many people arrange furniture in order to see what's going on outside. But why? The view isn't going anywhere.”
“I've got pages and pages of snippets of stuff, and if Max [Hershenow] sends me a track to write to I'll go through all the stuff and the initial reaction of gut and how it makes me feel and I'll sort of go from there and start pulling my favourite pieces of my lyrics and that will be a very literal word collage and from there I'll sculpt it for and whatever reason the song sort of presents itself. It's a bizarre process.”
“There is a small window of opportunity for freckled girls to tan.”
“You get to know more of the character of a man in a round of golf than in six months of political experience.”
“I have the right to life, liberty and chicken wings.”
“[Aldous Huxley] compared the brain to a 'reducing valve'. In ordinary perception, the senses send an overwhelming flood of information to the brain, which the brain then filters down to a trickle it can manage for the purpose of survival in a highly competitive world. Man has become so rational, so utilitarian, that the trickle becomes most pale and thin. It is efficient, for mere survival, but it screens out the most wondrous part of man's potential experience without his even knowing it. We're shut off from our own world.”
