Harry Patch didn't get enough recognition. Jerry Garcia got too much.

I've experienced as much fame as I ever want to.

If you want music that speaks to you, that LISTENS to you, you have to go out of your way, which I enjoy actually. I'm constantly on a private-eye kick to find the totally obscure.

I mean, I would hope that I have a style or personality that is evident wherever I go.

I don't really know why I chose bass except that it was different than guitar.

But I also like to be in control, like anyone else. I try to achieve a balance.

Well, I've never been to Japan so I couldn't say. I do know that we have a bit of a following there however.

There's a reason I moved to NYC, and if I listed all the musicians on my list you'd grow weary.

Being in several, disparate bands is what I thrive on.

Mullets are still going strong in the south and places like St Louis or the Carolinas.

The bungle tour is a bit up in the air due to the fact this at we are getting screwed by our overseas label.

It's too hard for me to comment on the sorry state of our culture.

I remember when metal was something you really had to search out, and now I hear it on car commercials.

I love being a musician. I love the lifestyle. But I think it's probably as difficult and frustrating as anything.

NYC is chaotic. And I am attracted to chaos.

Music is a very personal and emotional form of communication.

I never understood why the metal heads in my school hated the punks.

I guess the two Manifesto, Communicating Vessels, Mad Love, and some of his poetry made a significant mark on me but as far as bringing a literary element into the music I see it as a much broader assimilation.

I think it was more personal, but I certainly tried to adapt certain concepts of Surrealism.

Harry Patch didn't get enough recognition. Jerry Garcia got too much.

I'm comfortable, but not satisfied and I hope to always feel that way.

It wasn't until after private lessons and learning bass lines that I even noticed bass in the music I was listening to at that age. My ears were blown wide open.

Now I am obsessed with collecting Platypus paraphernalia.

I need to broaden my horizons.

I feel akin to the Platypus. An orphan in a family. A swimmer, a recluse. Part bird, part fish, part lizard.

I love playing in Fantomas, which is very strict in terms of composition.

I take all of my music seriously and personally.

If I can introduce someone to something new, as is constantly happening to me, then I am elated.

I have no inflated ideas about success anyway.

Pop culture is not about depth. It's about marketing, supply and demand, consumerism.

Hopefully, as a band, it will grow and develop for a good length of time.

Bungle is definitely a priority right now.

Different people bring out different aspects of ones personality.

No matter what our decorating style - realized or aspired to the essential spiritual grace our home should possess is the solace of comfort.

There were symptoms that I saw, and though I went to many doctors and had many tests, no one diagnosed MS.

With the NBA's dress code, I had to revamp my wardrobe a little bit. They call it 'business casual.' You have to wear dress jeans or dress slacks, with a collared shirt or sweater. And you can't wear athletic shoes.

I can't live with art: I'd spend too much time tweaking it.

Marxism does not make sense, and I am the first one to say this.

It's nice coming to Nashville, and we have four-bedroom house and a dog, and we go swimming a lot. We get down here and spread out a lot, and I miss my sweet tea and my cornbread and my good southern cooking - but I'm down here eating pretty for two weeks and I'm ready to go back to New York City.

I don't want to make any judgments, and I don't want to preach, but I'm hoping that marriage can work: that when people do fall in love, when people do find their soul mate, everyone sticks to it. It has the potential to be a very powerful thing, marriage.

I have low self-esteem and I always have. Guys always cheated on me with women who were European-looking. You know, the long-hair type. Really beautiful women that left me thinking, 'How I can I compete with that?' Being a regular black girl wasn't good enough.

I rarely do masks because, if I have any extra time, I'd rather spend it with my friends than on myself.

My philosophy is that the most important aspect of any religion should be human kindness. And to try to ease the suffering of others. To try to bring light and love into the lives of mankind.

I was a hockey player. I played hockey forever. That was my life and my job until I got injured, so I get sports, and I get the sports atmosphere, the feeling around other athletes, but I never played football.

Why is it that here in the United States we have such difficulty even imagining a different sort of society from the one whose dysfunctions and inequalities trouble us so?

Sam is there, Sam has been playing well, he has been doing great in camp.

With comedy, the jokes will come out, and people will see them coming. Changes in daily life or current events can change the consciousness of audiences and can make the show less funny or feel more stale.

If you wanted to design a robot that could learn as well as it possibly could, you might end up with something that looked a lot like a 3-year-old.

Being a celebrity, I don't even have to talk.
