I would do anything to be around music. You don't even have to pay me.

Ladies and gentleman of Florida, this is the real Jeff Ament...take a very good look because there's an imposter running around...if someone comes up to you and says he's Jeff Ament and says he wants to take your pot or wants to take you to a strip club, it's probably not him.

If you're anti-war it doesn't mean you are 'pro' one side or the other in a conflict.
Eddie Vedder
War hurts. It hurts no matter which sides the bombs are falling on.

Eddie Vedder
I learned so much about music by playing this little, miniature songwriting machine [ukulele], especially about melody. The motto is less strings more melody.
Eddie Vedder
It's an art to live with pain... mix the light into gray.

This little four-string songwriting tool started changing the way I brought songs to the group.
Eddie Vedder
I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to say things. I'm a little exhausted by the process.

When it comes to grunge or even just Seattle, I think there was one band that made the definitive music of the time. It wasn't us or Nirvana, but Mudhoney. Nirvana delivered it to the world, but Mudhoney were the band of that time and sound.
Eddie Vedder
You kill yourself and you make a big old sacrifice and try to get your revenge. That all you're gonna end up with is a paragraph in a newspaper. In the end, it does nothing. Nothing changes. The world goes on and you're gone. The best revenge is to live on and prove yourself.
