I Like Being Swept Up In Weather

Everything Becomes Closer Once You Realize That The World Is Only As Far Away As A Nap And A Meal.

When I Stopped Touring, It Was Like Trying To Stop A Bullet Train Or A Giant Lead Ball Falling From A 100 Stories Up - It's Momentum And It Doesn't Just Stop. I Drew A Line In The Calendar And Made It A Brick Wall And Just Stopped Dead. There Was No Other Way. It Would've Taken Another 100 Years To Slow Down Slowly. I Had To Let Myself Imagine A Calendar With No Lines; When Every Single Day Is Being Predetermined Six Months In Advance, There's No More Fluidity To Time.

I Just Went To Europe, Spent A Year Traveling, And Then I Came Home With A Finished Album And Said, "hey Everyone I'm Back!" I Gave Everyone Their Lighters From Luxembourg, Gave Them The Postcards From Italy And Rome, Then Said, "hey Look, I Made A Record, Too" And Played It For Them. The General Reaction Was Shock, Because It Was So Different From What They've Known Me To Do.

I'm A Nostalgic Person And I Really Like Rehashing And Digging Around The Mental Trunks.

I Had A Guitar Leaning Against The Wall And I'd Squint At It. It Was Almost Like A Dog That Had Been Kicked - I Didn't Think I Had Anything To Offer It.
