Probably most of the time I watch children's movies because my kids are on the bus, so it requires them.

I'm not going to change my ways just to please you, or appease you.

There's war - there's always been war, as long as most of us have been alive. There have always been people being abused, there's always been horrible things in the world. Why are we outraged? We should just be quiet and figure it out, and work it out together.

Turns out, not where, but who you're with that really matters.

I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.

A vote for change is a vote for a stronger, safer, healthier America. A vote for Bush is a vote for a divided, unstable, paranoid America. It is our duty to this beautiful land to let our voices be heard. That's the reason for the tour. That's why I'm doing it.

I see you young and soft oh little baby Little feet, little hands, little baby One year of crying and the words creep up inside Creep into your mind So much to say

The moon is quite a show off given the chance. The stars make a sound when they shine so bright. Water so blue and so black.

I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles I'm coming slow but speeding

Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down.

We give the podium to a lot of people who shouldn't have the podium. The message that's delivered the loudest and in the most entertaining way is the one that we're going to put on because that's what we want. We want ratings more than we want to deliver information. That's just where the culture's gotten.

The idea of God as a fatherly figure who looks down on us and worries about how we're doing or takes sides when we have fights - it's more irritating than Santa Claus. The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.

How could I have been anyone other than me?
Dave Matthews

I don't feel like I'm standing in a position where I have some right above other people to say what I think. We should all be talking to each other about what we think is important - whether we're in politics, or whether we're checking out at a grocery store. We shouldn't put walls up between each other.

We have to do much more than believe if we really want to change things.

I hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.

I'm a bit of a caveman - I don't go out into the digital space very often. I lie facedown on the grass and count how many bugs I can find.
