Really the topic of breakfast cereal is generally a very boring one.

Not everyone deserves to be a musician, you get lucky enough to be one.

I'm always looking for cool stuff to do because that's what we're supposed to do, ya know?

So the thing is to put out music for music's sake.

Sometimes Queens' music is dark, but somehow it's ok to deliver it with a smile on your face because thing's are still going to kick in.

The girls in high school who watched 90210? I was watching Seinfeld.

My favorite film is always the one that I most recently worked on.

In the practical world of computing, it is rather uncommon that a program, once it performs correctly and satisfactorily, remains unchanged forever.

I've never thought about any kind of prejudice about women in country music because I never felt like it affected me.

How do you know antiquity was foolish? How do you know the present is wise? Who made it foolish? Who made it wise?

If you're going to write a good book, you have to make mistakes and you have to not be so cautious all the time.

Vengeful conquerors burn books as if the enemys souls reside there too.

No one ever graduates from BIBLE study until he meets the Author face to face
