We have an electronic vein we have tapped and applied it to a rock setting like tons of bands out there.

I was way into Primus in high school so hanging out with him was a thrill.

We ought to be doing that with decent standard housing but if we have people who are absolutely on the streets in this case, I think it makes sense that tent cities are preferred to not having tent cities.

Believing that our greatest need is for the general public to be able to get better information, to have an opportunity to learn better the real issues of the less fortunate, we centered the activities of the Fairness Project on that.

It's definitely an influence, I mean how can you not say you are influenced to play rock.

What's wrong is that we are not participating to make this the type of government it needs to be.

The end game is you change that law to making that law better, whichever law you're talking about.

It was awesome because we were doing Ramones songs.

We have an electronic vein we have tapped and applied it to a rock setting like tons of bands out there.

We became good friends with Galactic as well.

And in a democracy, when we say we're mad at what's going on, what we need to be saying is we're mad at ourselves.

I think a lot of it is that we used to tour so much that we never really had time to write songs.

If somebody comes to a neighborhood coffee hour, or goes to a discussion group, and they have a discussion, I do think that people really walk away with a real understanding of the issues.

The Fairness Project is endeavoring to try to do what we can to make a fairer society.

There are so many songs that we just don't play anymore.

Enterprise Washington is economic development in areas of high unemployment around the state of Washington.

A great thing about these trees is that they are excellent for cleaning, both groundwater, and of course, air.

Well, we played with Soul Coughing once for like two days, that was pretty cool. I mean they were all good, you can pull a great experience from everything.

I just feel like there hasn't been enough time away from all this other stuff and into this new world or sort of big world that it hasn't worn off yet.

We need to have the social investments by which to quote unquote distribute some of that wealth.

You can say that Wayne Coyne sounds like Neil Young.

I think the market driven economic system is the most productive system, but to have that work in the world, you've got to also have social investments to go along with that.

Well lately I have listening to a lot of movie soundtracks.

We have always wanted to write songs and be experimental in that way.

We wanted to sit down and conceptually work out songs.

We listened to a lot of Rolling Stones and Beatles records when we were recording. They were really good at not playing loud, but generating really big sounds out of everything.

I don't want to feel like people are imposing limits upon you.

My definition of courage is never letting anyone define you.

The Establishment Clause prohibits government from making adherence to a religion relevant in any way to a person's standing in the political community.

Like a lot of people, I've often wondered what else I might have been. When I was younger, but even after I was a child, I thought Batman was the whole package. Smart, calculating, pragmatic. Depressed, but in a way women found hot. Tragic at his core and struggling with his demons while trying to save the world.

One hardly saves a world without ruling it.

If you tell yourself you feel fine, you will.

'Ikiru' is existential but with a lot of tenderness.

A city is like a family portrait - you don't tear it up if you don't like your uncle's nose.

To be honest, I still feel like I haven't scratched the surface of where I want to be. If someone asked me for an autograph, I'd be like, 'Me? I haven't done anything yet !' I have much more to offer the world.

I hear odd tracks from my albums every now and again on the radio, or maybe a friend plays me something.

The computer, being a mechanical moron, can handle only quantifiable data.

Don’t settle for the one you can live with, wait for the one you can’t live without.

It takes a big idea to attract the attention of consumers and get them to buy your product. Unless your advertising contains a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night. I doubt if more than one campaign in a hundred contains a big idea.

I can wear a sexy dress to any red carpet event. My wedding is my chance to go all the way and wear a princess silhouette.

Be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle

Scrawling 'I'm gay' in lipstick on your parents' bedroom mirror may demonstrate a personal signature of the highest style, but is not particularly sensitive to their feelings. Upon hearing me utter those words almost twenty years ago, my own mother did what and self-respecting middle-class mom would do: went directly into a seizure.

I think we will always have the impulse towards visual poetry with us, and I wouldn't agree with Bly that it's a bad thing. It depends on the ability of the individual poet to do it well, and to make a shape which is interesting enough to hold your attention.

One wouldn't want to have the same dilemmas at 50 as one had at 15. And indeed I don't. I have a very different take on life.

The roster that we have today may change tomorrow. It is what it is for right now.

Manners are especially the need of the plain. The pretty can get away with anything.

When I first started YouTube, I was using an old computer that I had had in high school that stayed with me through college that was on its last leg. The boot-up was, like, 25 minutes.

I can do more than just stand-up comedy, and the only way I'll be able to show that is if I do it myself. Because nobody trusts that I can do it.

Youre still my person even if Im not yours.
