Quantitative methods are no more synonymous with objectivity than qualitative methods are synonymous with subjectivity.
We just wanna be the happy bums that we are. That's all.
I got one entire song from fortune cookies (Land of Sunshine). On another one, I took words from different Frank Sinatra songs and pasted them together. Another one, I was just driving around and there was a piece of paper on the ground, so I stole it.
If a person wants to be atheistic it's his God-given right to be an atheist.
Revenge is good. I think revenge is healthy too, and if you can use music in that way, a sort of therapeutic way for yourself, it can't do any harm. So if King (For A Day...Fool For A Lifetime) is angry in any way, it's angry in a random, chaotic, healthy way. Like the guy who goes into a building, shoots a bunch of holes in the wall and then leaves. He didn't kill anybody.
In my mind, I was always a comedian who was going to branch into writing.
Wars are usually really popular with people that aren't gonna be affected by them. 'Cause it's just entertainment, and it's just weird, like, 'Well, we've got to show the world that we're strong.' No we don't. And by the way, that has nothing to do with you. Why are you equating yourself with that... you know what I mean?
The apocalypse is coming, that's the one thing I like about George Bush, I really think he can get us into the ... apocalypse, like the BIBLICAL ... I really think he believes that he'll be the guy in the white hat. I think he's read the Stephen King novel The Stand a couple times, and he really thinks there's a dark man in the desert somewhere and he's gonna fight him or something.
You just do as many shows as you can to hone what it is you're working on.
You have to be ruthless with yourself, in terms of being honest about what is working and what is not.
Any comedian who tells you how dark and dangerous they are, they're not dark and dangerous.
As unhealthy as I am, I'm weirdly aware of exactly how my body functions.
I grew up in such a featureless, personality-less suburb. There was nothing to push against.
I had a romance novel inside me, but I paid three sailors to beat it out if me with steel pipes.
