I don't know how much you follow current events. For some, there's not enough time to keep up on what's happening for others, the news is too depressing, and peering too deeply fills one with boiling frustration all too quickly.

That's the only interaction I have with people, those talking shows. Most of the people in my phone book are artists, management, producers, engineers. I don't ever call people with, Hi! How are you?

When I'm off the road, and I can really control my diet down to the calorie, I juice seven days a week. Every afternoon, whatever I have at hand, beets, carrots, ginger, whatever. I juice, literally, every single day. And on the road, I try to find fresh juice wherever I can.

I'm not a thrill seeker. I'm not looking to get kidnapped. I'm not looking to get a shot at. I've been shot at. I didn't like it.

What goes best with a cup of coffee? Another cup.

Creativity requires a lot of pass/fail/start again and it is often hard on the psyche.

Through the years, I have combined meditation, action, and the Iron into a single strength. I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts. Time spent away from the Iron makes my mind degenerate. I wallow in a thick depression. My body shuts down my mind.

I am very ambitious in a way, in that I'm not trying to be the richest guy or whatever. I just really like my work.

As you do with any band you're in, you get to know everyone too well all too soon. When you're crammed into a small space, proximity leads to familiarity.

I don't have many friends so the phone doesn't ring and no one's asking me to go out and go dancing with them.

The average is the borderline that keeps mere men in their place. Those who step over the line are heroes by the very act. Go.
