Everyone wants to be well-loved and appreciated but, at the same time, there are some people that just don't want to be your friend, and there's nothing you can do or say to change that.

More quotes by Cass McCombs
A baseball team is like a band. Because, conceptually, there are no heroes in baseball - there's just the team.
Cass McCombs
I wouldn't go into the studio if I didn't have a band who's ready, willing, and able.
Cass McCombs
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.
Cass McCombs
When I'm trying to write a song for someone else, you can only see anything through your own eyes.
Cass McCombs
If you've ever sang in falsetto, you know that your throat is between your voice and your mouth. In a standard voice, you sing from your belly. And when you sing in a falsetto, you're blocking that. It gives it a filter. It gives it a character. It's less revealing.
Cass McCombs
I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.
Cass McCombs
I grew up in the suburbs and was raised on rap radio, so it took me a long time to stumble upon the acoustic guitar as a resource for anything.
Cass McCombs
Making music and art is about expressing something that's universally human, maybe even beyond human, at best.
Cass McCombs
I do like the word timeless. That's a great word.
Cass McCombs
It's not my way to talk about my feelings. They're impudent to myself, so it wouldn't make any sense if I tried to explain them to anyone else. I've never been to therapy - not interested in it.
Cass McCombs
I've always been interested in an idea of boundless love - an impersonal, big love.
Cass McCombs
Bringing the individual into it music only distracts from the universal and makes it trivial. And then it's easy to wash your hands of it because you might not be from their background, or you might disagree with their personal perspective. So you discount it and go back into your corner instead of coming out and engaging with everything.
Cass McCombs
I love being lost! I don't need to control anything. Even with romantic partnerships, I don't need to control anyone. I think I have some very meaningful relationships with people, we all do. At the same time, I recognize that everyone is following their own heart there's been people who have left my life and I don't have a problem with that.
Cass McCombs
When I was young, I used to go to Baha'i camp, and they taught me a lot about the equality of religions.
Cass McCombs
As it turns out, it's really expensive to make movies, much more than records.
Cass McCombs
Opinions only carry weight in the second or third person.
Cass McCombs
I think I like singing when I'm singing live. It's just in the studio when it's a drag.
Cass McCombs
I don't like going to the studio. It just seems too cold. There's no crowd to react to, or share anything with it's just talking into a microphone that's going into a computer.
Cass McCombs
I think I prefer singing in falsetto. I like the way it sounds. It doesn't sound like my natural voice. It sounds like a character.
Cass McCombs
I took piano lessons when I was a little kid, but even before that, you're singing in the classroom and wherever. Gosh, children are always singing. But I took music lessons, some choir and things like that at school. I learned how to play the guitar when I was about 13... ancient history.
