There is a very good chance I could have been a screw-up for the rest of my life.

Just stay real and stay a real person.

Solace is my favorite song. It was the last song we wrote for the record. It was right when we really started to mesh as far as music goes and we started really connecting with each other.

All the bands get along really well. That's one of the biggest things on a tour. It's great to get all these cool bands together, but if they don't get along it sucks.

Florida has been really cool to us. This is our first big club tour, and Pennywise has been really nice.

Even though we're not the most punk rock band, the way we've done things is pretty punk rock. Just kinda say it with a big middle finger to the record labels and do it ourselves.

It's about putting the pedal to the metal and not asking any questions at all and just going for it.

If someone is not happy with one thing we either tweak it until they're happy with it. We all know where that line is, where you have to be three hands up.

The best present I've ever given someone is myself. I've given it to everyone.

Don't let young people tell you their aspirations; when they drop them they will drop you.

I want the people who listen to my music to feel the feeling that I feel, to cry the cry that I cry - justice. I want them to feel in their hearts the need for justice.
