taught baha young
When I was young, I used to go to Baha'i camp, and they taught me a lot about the equality of religions.
art action folks
Folk art has never been much about politics; it's about action and utility.
song heart cutting
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.
writing giving people
I write for myself, and I write for my friends and people who I have a connection with. I try to give some dignity to peoples' lifestyles that tend to be ignored.
religious reading good-reading
A lot of religious texts make for good reading. That's why they hold up.
weight opinion third-person
Opinions only carry weight in the second or third person.
jobs thinking way
I don't think music is my job - I don't think about it that way, because I don't really get paid. There's no paycheck at the end; it's more of a 'whatever is left over' kind of situation.
feelings music-is
Music is the marriage of the feelings of the living to the wisdom of the dead.
creating community musician
Musicians wake up and create a more loving community by creating heavier music.
play stuff fluff
Lyrics are my racket; music is play - the fluff stuff.
writing feelings mind
Even if I'm writing music, it's with a lyric in mind, to communicate some kind of feeling.
song teacher writing
People take things a little too personal. I write these songs, and they're experiments with thoughts. That's it. I'm not a teacher.
enemy trying moral
If it's possible to have an enemy without making it personal or moral, then that's what I'm trying to do.
people want appreciated
Everyone wants to be well-loved and appreciated but, at the same time, there are some people that just don't want to be your friend, and there's nothing you can do or say to change that.
