There's nothing better than having a baby. I've always loved children. I used to work summers at the YMCA and be in charge of, like, 30 preschool kids. I knew that when I had a child, I'd be overwhelmed, and it's true... I can't tell you how much my attitude has changed since we've got Frances. Holding my baby is the best drug in the world.

I had a really good childhood up until I was nine years old. Then a classic case of divorce really affected me and I moved back and forth between relatives all the time. And I just became extremely depressed and withdrawn.

Humans are stupid. I'm ashamed to be human.

The world sucks, people are not true
Kurt Cobain

I've never been a very prolific person, so when creativity flows, it flows. I find myself scribbling on little notepads and pieces of loose paper, which results in a very small portion of my writings to ever show up in true form.

If chasing cool is important to you, you're an idiot!

I'm all for stage diving, but just don't step on my pedals

After I reached my teens I decided I didn't want to hang out with anyone. I couldn't handle the stupidity.

I would love to be erased from our association with Pearl Jam or the Nymphs and other first time offenders.
