Julian Casablancas
A band is a great way to destroy a friendship, and a tour's a great way to destroy a band.
Julian Casablancas
Art is the image of life, it's purpose simply to enhance it.
Julian Casablancas
When I hear Sam Cooke's 'A Change Is Gonna Come', it frustrates me because no matter how hard I try, I can never be that good.
