"There's often a lot of stupid ideas like "you all dress as fruits and pretend you're selling underpants" or "we'll put you on a bed of nails and drive a truck over the top and photograph you" for the cover."

"Being a physicist, my father was a great believer in progress, but he also loved nature. He was a photographer, and outside of taking the occasional family photographs, all he did was photograph nature. He loved birds. That meant a lot to me growing up.

"That's the magic of this band: shooting from the hip. The lights have to follow our cues, because we're not going to follow their cues. We're not going to stick to a song the way it's supposed to be. Everything is up to us. That's music to me. That's American music. We're an American band."

"Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down."

"If at all God's gaze falls upon us all it's with a mischievous grin, look at him."

"I'm not going to change my ways just to please you, or appease you."

"You seek up a big monster for him to fight your wars for you."

"Every day things change, but basically they stay the same."

"See you and me, have a better time than most can dream. Have it better than the best, so we can pull on through. Whatever tears at us... whatever holds us down, And if nothing can be done, well make the best of whats around."

"The future is no place to place your better days."

"Come and relax now, put your troubles down. No need to bear the weight of your worries, just let them all fall away."

"And as you go I will spread my wings. Yes, I will call this home. I have no time to justify to you, Fool, you're blind, move aside for me. All I can say to you my new neighbor, You must move on or I will bury you."

"Don't you know when you give life, then you become what you are?"

"A rolling stone, that gathers no moss, but leaves a trail of busted stuff."

"You know she's gonna leave my broken heart behind her."

"Move into kiss those sweet sugar lips, baby looks just like love."

"She prays to God most every night And though she swears he doesn't listen there's a little hope in her he might."
