  • I don't know why we play better on the road. I really don't. Chalk it up to coincidence, I guess. I don't think we care where we play, which is a good thing. But you'd like to see our home record be a little better than it is.

  • The stuff that I write doesn't work very well as background music. You have to watch it from beginning to end and pay attention as if you were watching a play.

  • After a certain high level of technical skill is achieved science and art tend to coalesce in aesthetics, plasticity, and form. The greatest scientists are artists as well.

  • All knowledge is precious whether or not it serves the slightest human use.

  • You're my present and my future Sadie, I will use whatever power I have to make you happy.

  • Of course on air I use occasional hyperbole to tell a story.
