For a guy who didn't expect a fan base whatsoever, I'm pretty stoked. People say they don't understand it, and I say that's okay. I don't think anyone can argue that I'm not trying to do my own thing at least.
Thinking to get at once all the gold the goose could give, he killed it and opened it only to find-nothing.
I think I live inside the plane! I never have time to unpack; I'm always leaving in two days again. I travel a lot, and at the beginning it was really fun. The first time I went inside a plane, I was 15 years old and I had so much fun. I like to travel all over the world and learn [about] new cultures. Not that many people have the opportunity to do that.
Here in the big city people spend their time thinking about work and about money; they don't give some value to friendships and it can be depressing.
When I was fired from my post as General of the Fighter Arm, I was to give proof that this jet was a superior fighter. And that's when we did it. I think we did it.
I love music videos, I really do. I think it's kind of sad that it's a dying art form.
Men choose Hamlet because every man sees himself as a disinherited monarch. Women choose Alice [in Wonderland] because every woman sees herself as the only reasonable creature among crazy people who think they are disinherited monarchs.
I don't think healthcare's a right. The only right you have is the ability to go out on an even playing field and work, and then purchase health insurance, or whatever it is.
As long as I know what key the solo is in, I try to kind of empty my mind and not think about anything. I just play without thinking.
Think of strangers as friends you not met yet.
I don't even really understand that concept of someone being 'smart' or someone else being 'smarter.' I think that except for the obvious special cases, we're all equal.
Tell me what you think and then tell me what the really smart person in the room who disagrees with you thinks.
I think that for some people faith is good - they have something to draw to.
I think vestigially there's a synesthete in me but not like a real one who immediately knows what colour Wednesday is.
Well, as a short-story writer, I don't think there are any weaknesses to the genre itself. I guess I would say that the difficulty of the form is that one must create an entire world in five to 30 pages, as opposed to 300. There is very little room for fat - you must be economical. And you must begin as close to the end as you possibly can.
I think my knowledge of music theory is rooted in jazz theory, and a lot of the writers of standards - Rodgers and Hart, and Gershwin.
I think it's wrong the way they criminalize herb. There are many more uses than just smoking. Beneficial to mankind.
You can't climb uphill by thinking downhill thoughts.
I think we are in a time where the youth play such a huge role. It's up to us to go the extra mile to vote and raise our voices.
I'm about to turn 24, but I'm probably closer to the average 34-year-old in a lot of ways. I never had the problem of, "Who am I and who do I want to be?" I've known for so long, so I think that's why getting married made sense early. And then the biggest factor is just finding really incredible women. I think that's the part about being in a band with female fans: You get to meet so many women, and you figure out pretty quick which ones stand out in the crowd and which ones are really connecting with you.
I think every morning we wake up offers a new beginning, a new way of stepping into the day. I think every conversation could be a new chance.
The rules of the game must be constantly updated to keep up with the expanding technology. Otherwise we overkill the classic climbs and delude ourselves into thinking we are better climbers than the pioneers.
I think God has a sense of humor, and the way my lessons come from God is very funny. I have to laugh at myself even if it's a tough lesson.
I think the most important thing about holding a concert is to enjoy the moment, rather than showing off.
We say to ourselves we won't live forever, but I don't think that thought ever really sinks in until the day comes.
