You always want what you can't have, and that all-American thing, from the day I was born, I could never enter that dream. That all-American white culture is something that is inherited instead of attained.
On tour, I don't drink, because I don't think in any other job you are supposed to get to work and drink whisky.
It's very tempting, when somebody says they like this about you, to want to do that over and over.
I've been asked whether I have a hobby, and have felt strangely offended that anyone would assume I have the time.
I don't think I'm alone in this: I'm obsessed with trying to not only be happy but maintain happiness, but my definition of happiness is skewed more towards ecstasy rather than contentment.
I always have strong urges to sabotage myself. Whenever someone says they like something about my music, I tend to not want to do that anymore. It's not even that I don't like it anymore: it's that I keep trying to find ways for people to dislike me.
