Quote

I think there are two types of photographers, those who want to document the world and those who want to create their own world. I am more interested in documenting the world and presenting it to people with the question attached, 'Does this make any sense to you?'

I realized the universe is 15 billion years old and unspeakably complicated. I still love the teachings of Christ, but I also believe that the human condition prevents us from having any true objective knowledge and understanding of the universe.

People don't truly respond to something until they see the direct consequences.

I did a cover of the James Bond theme, and I felt like such a fraud, because the original is so good.

Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.

I don't have children, but I imagine if parents are really pushed on the subject, they probably have favorite children.

My reason for becoming a vegetarian was simple: I loved (and love) animals

I'm just fascinated with the world that I can see, but I'm even more fascinated with the world that I can't see.

I've had my Charlie Sheen moments, it was usually just at the Mars Bar on the corner of First Avenue with me and a few homeless guys.

I don't think of myself as a singer I usually end up singing when I can't find anyone better to sing, or when I'm too lazy to find someone better.

Image
I have nothing against bombastic music, but when it comes to making albums, I'd prefer to make music that has a sort of vulnerable subtlety to it.

If Nirvana had remained a small, underground punk rock band, Kurt Cobain would still be alive. And he'd probably be living in Seattle, getting kind of fat and balding, be relatively happy and producing records for other people.

One of the main reasons I'm vegan is because I'm ethically lazy. My friends who eat meat or who eat eggs have to sometimes wrestle with the ethical consequences of their actions. By being vegan, I take the easy way out.

Doing interviews and touring are two ways that I can try to bring my music to people. It can be tiring, but it's better than working at Burger King.

I honestly haven't thought much about what to play and where, perhaps i should...it seems like most musicians are better at that than I am.

In the past I've had public feuds with people, and I have really not benefited from any of them. The feud with Eminem did kind of torpedo my career in the United States, but it also introduced me to Middle America in a way I never could have conceived of.

When I was growing up, albums were my closest friends, as sad as that may sound - Joy Division's 'Closer,' or Echo and the Bunnymen's 'Heaven Up Here'... I had a more intimate relationship with those records than I did with most of the people in my life.

I don't sleep very well when I travel. And as a result, I tend to be awake in cities when everyone else is asleep.

Most artists, you know, you spend their entire lives learning how to play music and write songs, and they don't really know how the music business works.

If you and I become vegans, the global consequences aren't going to be that much. But if we can get a few hundred million people to become a little more aware and cut back on their animal consumption, the consequences will be great.

When someone comes to me and says the music I've made has affected them emotionally, that's the most gratifying part of my job.
