I don't feel any shame I won't apologize if there ain't nowhere you can go running away from pain when you've been victimized tales from another broken home.
No matter what, if you're a parent, you have to make sacrifices.
It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done.
I think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of 'Oh, I can't'. They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing.
Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.
The main thing about the character [in the Ordinary World] is that he loves music, and he shares it with his daughter. He's having a mid-life moment, and it's a small moment, really. I think that the character actually really loves where he's at, in his life. He's just trying to have it make a little bit more sense while he figures out what he actually wants to do with it.

When all else fails...be a rockstar

If Britney Spears would paint her ass green, I'm sure you would spot green asses all over L.A., as soon as the word was out.
When someone is in a car accident and they're driving at 100 mph, drunk, who's tape do you think his listening to at that time? Think about it.
I don't like LA. The majority just seem to be so artificial. Look at how they worship everything they think is fashionable. Isn't it sick?
I'm not as depressed as I used to be. The Prozac's working!
