There are certain songs that I like to listen to at certain times of the day. For example, first thing in the morning I love listening to Flamenco Sketches off of Miles Davis' Kind of Blue.

I love the idea that you can create a world through song.

Why is it that everything is collapsing if gravity is pulling us together?

That's what life is, a continual state of journey. You are a river passing downstream.

Hope is not something you can just place in your back pocket or put your fingers around – it’s the belief in a world that has yet to exist.
