With everything you're letting go, I'm sure it's going to have a different value to you. And every time you let go you're going to be a different age or there's going to be different circumstances. So I think the best way to do it is to simply wish the best for that thing.

What I get on a yoga mat, and from a yoga teacher, has been more beneficial onstage than any other workshop I've ever done.

Quite simply I've distilled my mission down to the essence. The only thing I'm really here to do is shine light on people's lives through music, through laughter and to simply enjoy being with people.

I recently read that it's the left brain that does all that calculating, and the right brain that does the poetry. Somehow I've veered way towards the left. I've been doing it for years. Maybe I do art to balance it out.

I would enjoy doing what cats do: singing, sleeping, and licking my nuts.

If you have a dream, this is your chance. We don't always have to play it safe because people might think you're weird.

The best thing for you to do is shop at your local farmer's market and support the organic growers who are there. Because those are the guys who are taking care of the soil that is ultimately going to take care of us.

I was raised playing music in coffeehouses and I feel that was the foundation for my career. I think it is important that we remember where we came from.
