people records letters
My laptop seems to know where I am, even if I don't. My cellphone asks me if I want directions to anywhere from the spot I am standing in. I buy a record online and Amazon.com sends me letters, telling me that people who bought what I bought also bought these other records.
zuckerberg stuff kind
Here you can be a billionaire, like Mark Zuckerberg rich, but you are going to die and you are here for a while and ultimately all of your stuff is kind of like a rental.
trying bombs clubs
If I had to perform in a comedy club I would bomb; I would be trying too hard.
creative artistic
I'm not artistic nor am I all that creative.
pay today three
I got three letters today telling me that I'm god. Why can't I pay the rent?
stage comfortable
I'm most comfortable on stage.
wise war fall
I want my fellow citizens to wise up and stop falling for [war]. I try with my limited access, I'm not getting into Kabul with a camera, they're not letting me get into Benghazi with a camera. I do what I can with my flimsy American passport and a visa. The photos are a bit more heavy from Southern Sudan and Haiti and Cuba.
goes-on stage
I love to go on stage and sing.
identity matter different
Having an identity is one thing. Being born into an identity is quite a different matter.
thinking justice pessimistic
I'm pessimistic. I don't think that justice always gets the right person.
running stress moving
People have become separated from their bodies. They are no longer whole. I see them move from their offices to their cars and on to their suburban homes. They stress out constantly, they lose sleep, they eat badly. And they behave badly. Their egos run wild; they become motivated by that which will eventually give them a massive stroke. They need the Iron Mind.
war people effort
There is a concerted effort to keep you and me, you know, the people, away from what it [war]really looks like, 'cause when you're selling war, when it's such a big industry. What they don't tell you is the rest of it and the down side of it. And so obviously there is a lot of money and a lot of time and effort being spent on that campaign "perpetual war for perpetual peace".
movie party thinking
When the movie comes out, what anybody thinks of it doesn't really matter to me. I don't go to the wrap party. I don't go to the premiere.
summer europe july
Every summer, around late July and into August, I find myself in Europe, performing at any festival that will have me.
