John Darnielle
I always worry that I'm a dilettante: I know something about lots of things but don't have exhaustive knowledge of much.
John Darnielle
Everybody experiences reality in a way that's only true for them.
John Darnielle
I grew up around some people whose parents toured a lot: tough on the marriage, tough on the kids.
John Darnielle
People say friends don't destroy one another. What do they know about friends?
John Darnielle

John Darnielle
Do every stupid thing that makes you feel alive.
John Darnielle
Human beings are selfish by nature. Everything that happens to a child, you immediately grab your own child and say, I will never let that happen to you.
John Darnielle
