I'm glad it done like it done because that kid worked so hard,
This trial is moving like a freight train.
There aren't that many things left that haven't already been done, especially with music. I'm interested in ideas that can shake us all up.
Many days you will want to give up because of rejections and failures. Passion to be an artist will help you prevail where others fail.
Well, I sort of don't trust anybody who doesn't like Led Zeppelin.
I think the media's the kind of thing where the truth doesn't win, because it's no fun. The truth's no fun.
Maybe we should all just listen to records and quit our jobs
Failure comes when we don't get back up and try again.
Passion is the breath we take, the water we drink to sustain ourselves. Without air and water we perish; without passion an artist will wither and blow away.
Vinyl is the real deal. I've always felt like, until you buy the vinyl record, you don't really own the album. And it's not just me or a little pet thing or some kind of retro romantic thing from the past. It is still alive.
I want to be part of the resurgence of things that are tangible, beautiful and soulful, rather than just give in to the digital age. But when I talk to people about this they just say, 'Yeah, I know what you mean,' and stare at their mobiles.
This generation is so dead. You ask a kid, 'What are you doing this Saturday?' and they'll be playing video games or watching cable, instead of building model cars or airplanes or doing something creative. Kids today never say, 'Man, I'm really into remote-controlled steamboats.'
It is the pursuit of happiness that brings us happiness, and not the happiness achieved.
If you don’t have a struggle inside or around you, you have to make one up.
