More quotes by Ira Kaplan
I don't think simple is an insult. Something that's really simple and great is probably harder to do than something more complex.
Ira Kaplan
There's a lot of music that we've never heard before. It's not like we're just pulling out December's Children by The Rolling Stones and listening to that again and again. We are listening to things we've never heard, but they do tend to be from the past.
Ira Kaplan
Sometimes things that are comfortable are comfortable because it's what you're good at. When you start doing the things you're not as comfortable with, there needs to be a reason for it.
Ira Kaplan
I think that's a big part of how to stay together as long as possible: learning what to do when things go wrong. And it's particularly hard when you're recording, because the importance of everything you're doing is so magnified.
Ira Kaplan
When people ask you to do stuff, it's not your idea anymore, so it's tough to get behind it.
Ira Kaplan
I have grown more forgiving. I accept that not everything is for me. I'm not as in love with my own opinions as I used to be. And anger is not something that comes to me as quickly as it once did.
Ira Kaplan
As the fans' voting reflected, people want to hear your best-known songs.
Ira Kaplan
I think all of us enjoy the feeling of something that goes on and on, as listeners as much as players. Just to get into a moment that feels like it could go on forever, and that you kind of want to go on forever. I don't know. There's so many things we do that I could describe by saying they just feel right when we're doing them.
