My strengths and talents are my title.

Layne Staley
I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied.
Layne Staley
There's no huge, deep message in any of the songs. We recorded a few months of being human.
Layne Staley
When everyone goes home, you're stuck with yourself.
Layne Staley
I'm not doing well. Don't try to talk about this to my sister Liz. She will know it sooner or later.
Layne Staley
Our perception of songs that we've written... the meaning changes from day to day... to whatever stage we're at in our life and careers.
Layne Staley
We try to be real nice and friendly to people, but sometimes they take advantage of that.
Layne Staley
If I can't be my own, I'd feel better dead
Layne Staley
You my friend,I will defend,and if we change well, I love you anyway.
